Abstract:
1. An electroencephalogram interface system comprising: a presentation section for presenting a plurality of options to a user, the plurality of options being manipulable items concerning manipulations of a device; a selection flicker control section for flickering each of the plurality of options; a biological signal detection section for measuring an electroencephalogram signal from the user; an inference section for inferring one option corresponding to a desired manipulation of the user by utilizing an event-related potential of an electroencephalogram contained in the electroencephalogram signal, the event-related potential being based on the flickering of each of the plurality of options as a starting point; a confirmation flicker control section for effecting confirmation flickering of the one option inferred; a determination section for determining whether the inferred option corresponds to the desired manipulation of the user by utilizing an event-related potential of an electroencephalogram contained in the electroencephalogram signal, the event-related potential being based on the confirmation flickering of the one option as a starting point; and an output section for executing a process which is in accordance with a result of determination by the determination section.
