  • Patent number: 11921922
    Abstract: A system for brain-based digital menu selection includes an acquisition device to obtain one or more electrical signals corresponding to an operator's brain response, a stimulation generation device to generate a first stimulus with one or more target options based on the operator triggering the system, a first database including a first classification model, and processor. The processor receives a first response from the acquisition device corresponding to an operator's brain response to the first stimulus with the one or more target options, determines a probability of intended target, when the probability of intended target option is higher than a predefined confidence threshold value, selecting the intended target option and presenting a second stimulus, or executing a final action, according to the selected target option, and storing the first response and the selected target option in the first database with a classification identifier identifying the operator.

  • Patent number: 11612343
    Abstract: A method for determining the intention of a user of a vehicle to brake or accelerate, comprising: acquiring (100) a plurality of EEG signals on the user, applying (101) a predetermined spatial filter on the plurality of EEG signals so as to obtain a target EEG component, detecting (102) a spectral pattern in the EEG component corresponding to an intention to brake or detecting a phase pattern in the EEG component corresponding to an intention to accelerate.
