Abstract(s)
A interação do cérebro humano com sistemas de computadores se tornou possível devido
ao avanço do conhecimento biológico e tecnológico atual. Experimentos que exploram
esse conceito são chamados de Interface Cérebro-Computador (BCI). Esta dissertação
tem como objetivo auxiliar o desenvolvimento de experimentos BCI em suas etapas fundamentais,
de forma que facilite pesquisadores a trabalharem nesta área. Para tal, está
sendo desenvolvido um toolkit para unificar as ferramentas necessárias para realizar os
experimentos, permitindo que o pesquisador possa utilizar apenas a solução proposta.
Além das básicas do experimento, também foi desenvolvido uma interface que permita
acompanhar visualmente em tempo real a execução dos experimentos. Após os testes
realizados com o toolkit desenvolvido, foi comprovado a capacidade da solução de auxiliar
e simplificar a criação de experimentos BCI, sendo assim esperado que a solução incentive
que novas pesquisas possam ser realizadas.
Using the human brain to interact with a computer system has become possible, this is possible due to the advancement of biological science and current technological updates. This research area is called the Brain Computer Interface (BCI). This thesis aims to help develop new BCI experiments in a way that facilitates researchers to start a new experiment. To achieve this goal, a toolkit is being developed to unify all the tools necessary to develop a BCI experiment, allowing the researcher to do all the work using only the solution. A GUI is also being developed, providing complete monitoring of the state of the experiment. After the tests carried out, the capacity of the solution to help and simplify new BCI experiments was verified. We hope that the tool can increase the number of experiments in this area.
