| Summary: | This project established an electroencephalogram
(EEG)-controlled prosthetic hand to help stroke
patients with their rehabilitation exercises. The
preliminary finding on the experiments to identify a
suitable signal to control a servo motor using
Minwave Mobile as the input signal is presented.
Three methods are used to generate input signals;
attention level (Experiment A), eye blink detection
(Experiment B), and meditation level (Experiment C)
using the EEG device based on four healthy human
subjects. The generated input signal is then used to
move the servo motor to a specific angle. All three methods are found to be capable of generating the
input signals to move the servo motor to a specific
angle with some limitations. Therefore, the use of
one or two input actions was recommended to vary
the angle movement in the prosthetic hand of
stroke patients for future development.
