1.INTRODUCTION What is a Brain-Computer Interface? A brain-computer interface uses electrophysiological signals to control remote devices. Most current BCIs are not invasive. They consist of electrodes applied to the scalp of an individual or worn in an electrode cap such as the one shown in 1-1 (Left). These electrodes pick up the brain’s electrical activity (at the microvolt level) and carry it into amplifiers such as the ones shown in 1-1 (Right). These amplifiers amplify the signal
