Abstract :
This paper handles the problem of the post traumatic stress disorder of UAV operator veterans. This problem leads to disintegrating UAV operations that leads to devastation of UAV so the proposed system is monitoring these symptoms by using brain computer interface for indicating the mental state of veterans. The emotive EEG headset is used for acquiring EEG signal, EEGLAB for processing the PTSD and Open-vibe for real time application when the specified frequency noticed for each sample time the Arduino Due controller give alarm for avoiding UAV crash.
