Are low cost Brain Computer Interface headsets ready for motor imagery applications?

作者：

Highlights：

• We compare the quality of data captured by a professional and a low cost EEG headset.

• The results are based on the comparison of the success rate of a BCI system.

• Higher precision and less variance are found on low cost Emotiv EPOC headset datasets.

• The Emotiv EPOC low cost EEG headset can be used on motor imagery BCI systems.
