Abstract

This paper investigates controlling the commercialized Spykee mobile robot, using only brain electroencephalography (EEG) signals transmitted by the Emotiv Epoc Neuro Headset. The Spykee robot is equipped with a wireless communication protocol to control it. Both visualization and motor control methods have been carried out and analyzed in order to control the robot with accuracy. All the fourteen channels on the Emotiv headset have been utilized and the pattern recognition has been done by the echo state network (ESN). Four different actions (moving forward/backward and turning left/right) have been achieved to control the robot reaching an arbitrary target on the floor.
