Abstract

This paper describes a Mind controlled wheel chair with patient monitoring system based on Brain Computer Interface (BCI). BCIs are systems that may bypass typical channels of communication (i.e., muscles and thoughts) to supply direct communication and management between the human brain and physical devices by translating different patterns of brain activity into commands in real time. With these commands a wheel chair can be controlled. This wheel chair allows Doctors or relatives of patient to check the status of patient health remotely. With an Indoor Positioning System (IPS) patient inside the building is located to provide home automation.
