A brain-computer interface (BCI) establishes a direct output channel between the human brain and external devices. BCIs infer user intent via direct measures of brain activity and thus enable communication and control without movement. This book, authored by experts in the field, provides an accessible introduction to the neurophysiological and signal-processing background required for BCI, presents state-of-the-art non-invasive and invasive approaches, gives an overview of current hardware and software solutions, and reviews the most interesting as well as new, emerging BCI applications. The book is intended not only for students and young researchers, but also for newcomers and other readers from diverse backgrounds keen to learn about this vital scientific endeavour.
This book provides an accessible introduction to the neurophysiological and signal-processing background required for BCI, presents the latest non-invasive and invasive approaches, reviews current hardware and software, and assesses emerging BCI applications.

Aus den Rezensionen:
?... Das Buch geht ... Grundlagen f?r BCls ... lebt das Buch von den Arbeitsgebieten der Wissenschaftler. & 60 schwarz/wei? und acht Farbabbildungen jedoch einen guten und aktuellen ?berblick ?ber BCIs und eine sehr gute zusammenfassende Abschatzung ?ber zukunftige m?gliche Einsatzbereiche. (Rolf Kickuth, in: CLB Chemie in Labor und Biotechnik, 2011, Issue 01-02, S. 76)
