Abstract

Electroencephalogram (EEG) based technology are becoming more popular in games design and development as new EEG equipment with portability, stylish wearable and easier usages are available in the market. Such technologies could be implemented in e-learning, entertainment and medical application for the disabled people. This project is to identify the importance of the EEG systems and seek the requirements to make a real-time, manageable and user-friendly BCI for gamers. The main objective of this project was to develop a playable game controlled by EEG signals. This includes building a mind game algorithm that making use of the available EEG device in the market. To achieve the aim, EEG signals were acquired, analyzed and classified. Finally, the classification signal was used to control a real-time feature in the 3D concentration mind game developed by the Orge3D game engine. This report outlines the step-by-step implementation and testing of this developed game, and the result was a functional 3D game named “spaceship” that can use user EEG signals to control the 3D game features. Three phases have been used to separate EEG signals between imagined movement and relaxation state. In the process, Virtual Reality Peripheral Network (VRPN) server was used as the interface between EEG and the developed game to send the EEG control signals. At the end of this project, a 3D game which can be played according to the user’s EEG signal was developed and designed.
