HI-Cam: intelligent biofeedback signal processing

Humanistic intelligence (HI) is defined by two embodying elements. (1) It is a signal processing framework in which the human and the computer use each other in a feedback loop. (2) The HI processing apparatus is inextricably intertwined with the natural capabilities of the human mind and body. The Humanistic Intelligent Camera, or HI-Cam, is a wearable personal imaging application of HI. It uses physiological signal processing such as fast Fourier transform analysis on EEG signals to control various parameters of a personal cybernetics system. EyeTap devices are particularly well suited to being controlled by brainwaves, because the parameters of the system are observable on the screen of the EyeTap viewfinder. This provided a direct means of physiological control over a video capture program, creating a camera system embodying humanistic intelligence
