* Department: Speech Language Hearing * Simulation Software: Matlab * Description:The main aim of the project was to detect finger extensions and lip movements using the Bereitschaftspotential of the EEG signal. A slow negative deflection occurs 2 seconds before the movement in EEG signal. This deflection was detected using a combination of Wiener filter and Logistic regression filter.
