Keywords:Brain-machine interface

Motor dysfunction caused by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and muscular dystrophy can lead to problems such as paralysis of limbs, inability to communicate one's intentions, and reduced quality of life. Brain-machine interface (BMI) is one way to solve this problem. In this study, we modified a sensory stimulator from a previous study and used event-related potentials (ERPs) in sensory EEG signals to control a computer application and evaluated its operability.
