Description
In 1992 BioControl introduced the Biomuse, a powerful, 8 channel "biocontroller" that acquires and analyzes any type of human bioelectric signal, and then outputs code to control other processor based devices. This unit is intended for use as a development platform for a range of applications. BioControl has licensed the Biomuse to selected research centers and Fortune 500 companies to support the development of specific neural interface and biocontroller products.

- The BioMuse is a bioelectric signal controller in a rack mountable package (17" X 14" X 3"), which allows users to control computer functions directly from muscle, eye movement, or brainwave signals, bypassing entirely the standard input hardware, such as a keyboard or mouse. It receives data from four main sources of electrical activity in the human body: muscles (EMG signals), eye movements (EOG signals), the heart (EKG signals), and brain waves (EEG signals). These signals are acquired using standard non-invasive transdermal electrodes. The BioMuse amplifies and digitizes the biosignals, and then processes the signals using Biocontrol's library of proprietary DSP algorithms. For a given application, the appropriate algorithm then outputs code to control virtually any digitally interfaced device.
