title: A hybrid BCI system for 2-D asynchronous cursor control.
abstract: In this paper, a hybrid EEG-based brain computer interface (BCI) is designed for two-dimensional cursor control. In our approach, two brain activity patterns, i.e., motor imagery and P300 potential, are used for controlling the horizontal and the vertical movements of the cursor respectively. A real-time BCI system based on this approach is implemented and evaluated through an online experiment. Six subjects attending this experiment can perform 2-D cursor control effectively. Our experimental results show that the system has the following merits compared with prior systems: 1) it does not rely on intensive user training; 2) it allows cursor movement between arbitrary positions.
