Paper Title
Robotics Functioned Over Brainwaves
Abstract
With growing technology the enhancements in gadgets is reaching great height. Every technology is seeking for
less human interference and more of automation. How about everything happens automatically just by your thoughts. The
mechanism is initiated to implant since 30 years and with growing conceptualization in it, various fundamentals are coming
up. Brain consists of various parts and the three main segments are cerebrum, cerebellum and brain stem. Each thought
generated in the brain has some energy associated with it. This energy is in the form of an electrical signal which can be
detected. This signal generated is defined as electroencephalogram signal in terms of neurology. This electrical signal has
some voltage associated with it and it can be detected using electrodes placed across the brain. These parts are the sites of the
brain in the frontal portion along with central, parietal and occipital regions. There are many channels allied with these sites
and different signals of different amplitude is received through this concept. This forms the basic foundations of Brain wave
operated robotics. This is getting advance with time and it provides a very flexible medium to remove all the intermediates
between the brain and human. A system is designed which is controlled using these EEG signals which are commanded as
input. The tasks are assigned based on the various type of signals detected through these electrodes. These electrodes form
the basis of the sensor detecting brain activities. Various types of sensors are introduced based on these fundamentals which
give good resistance to noise and enhances the signals in a productive way. Signal detection initiates signal acquisition
which is further processed using a bandpass filter and an instrumentation amplifier. This entirely constitutes the sensor. The
signals detected are further processed using MATLAB and are interfaced with robotics using Arduino. The main aspect of
this brain computer interface has been developed to introduce more accuracy to entire robotics and make the entire system
more automatic without human intervention. Technologies are going up and many projects are developed like that of an
automatic wheel chair which completely operates on brain waves.
