Brain controlled human robot interface

Abstract

This Paper emphasizes on the ever increasing need of better communication medium between a human and a robot in order to control it precisely. Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is the most suitable mean of communication between them, especially for the rehabilitation of disabled people and for accomplishment of sophisticated tasks like surgery, rehabilitation and operations etc. This paper in depth reviews the state of-the-art of BCI systems for robotics which can be named as Brain Robot Interface (BRI). Various BRIs reported in the literature have been presented by categorizing them. The past, present and future of the subject area has been discussed in detail. Finally, the paper comments on contribution of BCI in the area of robotics.
