Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Brain-computer (Brain-machine) interfaces (BCIs or BMIs) are developed to translate the electroencephalogram (EEG) recorded from a BCI user’s scalp into signals for control of external devices. BCIs have been expected as being useful interfaces for severely motor-impaired patients, especially, a BCI-driven motor-wheelchair is expected to allows such patients to move just by their remained brain activities. The purposes of this study are mainly two: (1) To developed a proto-type BCI system that controls three types of movement: left rotation, right rotation, and, going forward; (2) To analyze EEG pattern changes through pre- and post-training conditions. In our BCI system, the EEG signals were derived using bipolar derivation, band-passed in mu and beta frequency bands, and then classified into three brain states. The user trained EEG amplitude control with movement of hands or feet. Using our developed system, a subject participated BCI training by controlling a wheelchair and an avatar in a virtual space. The both types of training were alternately conducted 3 times for each in separate days and each training lasted about 40 minutes. Through whole training, the classification accuracy was increased from 81.5% to 85.5%. Training with wheelchair showed 4% higher accuracy increasing than the training with virtual reality. The result suggests that repetitive control of a BCI-driven wheelchair can provide an effective training for EEG amplitude control.
