Abstract :
A report is presented of experiments in start/stop control of microrobot movement using EEG alpha waves. The robot is a trajectory-follower and uses an optical sensor. Experimental design allows the subject to start robot movement by closing his or her eyes and to stop the robot by opening them. EEG alpha wave recognition software controls the movement of the robot.<>
