Application Areas
• Critical questions
– What's the killer app for non-medical
BCI?
– What does BCI do which nothing else
does?
– How/When/Where will the state of the
art reach useful applications?.
• Strategy
– Focus on passive BCIs rather than active BCIs.
– Getting technology into the wider hands of users with
useful, measured feedback.
– Realize transfer of knowledge, capabilities and
technologies between medical and non-medical research.
Technological Challenges
Wearible and
Cheap Sensors
Electrode Number
and Placement
Signal Processing
Integration with other
Interfaces
Usability and
Comfort
Safety
Maintenance
Technological Challenges
• Critical questions
– Will dry electrodes work?
– How to improve robustness?
– How far can we push ITR?
– Artefact removal without loosing information?
• Strategy
– Roadmap!

Strategic Issues
• Critical questions
– Ethical consequences (incl. privacy and legal )?
– User acceptance?
– What are the benefits for healthy users?
• Strategy
– Include industrial partners.
– User-centred design.
– Aim for mass applications to lower prices (games,
toys, ….).
– Ensure support of (international)
organisations/associations.
