I-Corps: Thought and Expression based Human-Technology Interface

拟议的工作涉及开发一种创新的人机界面（HTI）系统，该系统允许用户仅通过表情和思想来操作和交互电子设备。提出的HTI系统，以移动应用程序作为用户界面，将利用自学习算法以及低成本的商用现货（COTS）脑机接口（BCI）技术。人们一直需要一种超越传统按键和最新触控技术的更自然、更快捷的人机交互体验。这项研究的成果将彻底改变HTI，并将提供一个有效的范例，可应用于广泛的领域，如移动设备、家庭自动化系统、音频视频系统、视频游戏机和汽车电子产品。研究成果将大力促进与学术界和工业界多学科研究团队的合作网络，以建立强有力的外部资助研究计划，探索其他创新的HTI概念。

The proposed work involves developing an innovative human-technology interface (HTI) system, which allows users to operate and interact with electronic devices solely with expressions and thoughts. The proposed HTI system, with a mobile app as the user interface, will utilize self-learning algorithms along with low-cost commercially-off-the-shelf (COTS) brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. There has always been a need for a more natural and faster human-technology interaction (HTI) experience that goes beyond the traditional button and the latest touch-technology. Outcomes of the proposed research will revolutionize HTI and will provide an effective paradigm that can be applied to a broad range of areas such as mobile devices, home automation systems, audio video systems, video game consoles and auto electronics. Outcomes will be strongly leveraged to foster collaborative networks with multidisciplinary teams of investigators in academia and industry to establish a strong extramurally funded research program to explore other innovative HTI concepts.
