Hello everyone,

My guide gave me a task to "combine camera-based object detection with bci2000", and I had heard the name of bci2000 first time in that mail.
Anyhow I managed to install bci2000 on my pc , but now I don't understand anyhting in the tutorials , I'm like ,what's happening , how this works, I'm not getting anything.
Please, help me to learn this software(or whatever).

Thanks, for your time .

I can help you better if I know something about your background. Is it in human psychology, software engineering, or electrical engineering?

Hi, I'm a first year student in biotech engineering and I'm pretty good in programming.

BCI2000 is a piece of software that can read and process biosignal data in realtime, acquiring from EEG, ECoG, and single unit recording systems. It is also able to record and synchronize with auxiliary data from keyboard, mouse, joystick, camera, and microphone, as well as eye trackers.

In addition, BCI2000 can give visual and auditory feedback depending on the processed biosignal data. Altogether, it can be used to control a cursor on the screen, or used to select letters from a matrix just by brain activity.

Finally, it is possible to control output devices (such as a robotic arm) by brain activity.

So I guess your supervisor asks you to create an output component where the subject is able to select from a number of auto-detected objects, such that the selected object could be, say, grasped by a robotic arm. However, this is just speculation. You should talk to your supervisor and ask him more specifically about his ideas.

yeah , you are right but how can I learn and practice for bci2000 and complete this task.
