A P300 Model for Cerebot – A Mind-Controlled Humanoid Robot

  • Chapter
Robot Intelligence Technology and Applications 2

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 274))

Abstract

In this paper, we present a P300 model for control of Cerebot – a mind-controlled humanoid robot, including a procedure of acquiring P300 signals, topographical distribution analysis of P300 signals, and a classification approach to identifying subjects’ mental activities regarding robot-walking behavior.

We design two groups of image contexts to visually stimulate subjects when acquiring neural signals that are used to control a simulated or real NAO robot. Our study shows that the group of contexts using images of robot behavior delivers better performance.
