RED & BLUE
Brain Computer Interface on a Multi-touch Table-top
Red and Blue is an Abstract Game that is played on a Multi-Touch Interface using a Brain Computer Interfacing device that can read the player's brainwaves. In this game, players use their concentration and calmness of mind to create energy blasts, push , pull , lift and thrash objects and control elements of the environment. The Idea was to experience "The Energy Inside our Body Flow into the Screen".
Objective
Design an Interactive experience for the new Lenovo Horizon Multi-Touch 27 Inch Windows 8 PC using the Brain Computer Interface.
(Design brief for Intel App Innovation Contest, 2014)
Research
Research was carried out on the following technologies
(i) The Lenovo Horizon 27 Inch AIO PC.
(ii) Neurosky Mindwave Brain Computer Interface.
What is the general overview of these technologies?
What are their capabilities?
What interaction models do they support?
