Abstract

Brain Computer Interaction and Interfaces is another emerging technology that is presenting interesting potential for people with disabilities in their interaction with computers and machines in general. Combined with robotic arms, it can lead to prosthetic arms that can be handled though the brain like a natural hand. Apart from that, brain-computer interfaces can be used for a variety of other control operations over computers and machines in general and also for detecting the emotional state of a person. People with disabilities (and not only them) could use them to interact with a range of machines from traditional PCs to smart wheelchairs that will be able not only to accept commands but understand their emotions too. Therefore, this chapter is devoted to presenting recent efforts in the area and discussing issues and challenges that lie ahead in the domain of BCI so that the reader can get an overview of this new exciting technology.
