Abstract
As Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) become cheaper to manufacture and easier
to use, applications can be tailored towards healthy users. Previous studies
have successfully used a BCI to play games, suggesting it is possible to perform
fast-paced tasks in dynamic settings with a BCI. The current study collects and
analyzes brain signals of people playing the drums in a rhythm-game setting, to
investigate whether it is possible to develop a BCI rhythm game. In addition,
it also presents investigations into the effect of several movement and stimulus
conditions, as well as the type of brain signals, on classifier performance. Only
the type of brain signals was found to have a significant effect, with movement
signals being significantly more useful than stimulus processing signals. However,
the overall results indicate that it is possible to gain accurate and reliable
BCI results for use in a rhythm game.
