Abstract
Brain Computer Interface (BCI) methods have received a lot
of attention in the past several decades, owing to the exciting
possibility of computer-aided communication with the outside
world. Most BCIs allow users to control an external entity
such as games, prosthetics, musical output etc. or are used for
offline medical diagnosis processing. Most BCIs that provide
neurofeedback, usually categorize the brainwaves into mental
states for the user to interact with. Raw brainwave interaction
by the user is not usually a feature that is readily available for
a lot of popular BCIs. If there is, the user has to pay for or go
through an additional process for raw brain wave data access
and interaction.
BSoniq is a multi-channel interactive neurofeedback
installation which, allows for real-time sonification and
visualization of electroencephalogram (EEG) data. This EEG
data provides multivariate information about human brain
activity. Here, a multivariate event-based sonification is
proposed using 3D spatial location to provide cues about these
particular events. With BSoniq, users can listen to the various
sounds (raw brain waves) emitted from their brain or parts of
their brain and perceive their own brainwave activities in a 3D
spatialized surrounding giving them a sense that they are
inside their own heads.
