Abstract:
This work-in-progress paper presents an implementation of a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) system focused on the control of the most common messaging applications of a smartphone: WhatsApp, Telegram, e-mail and Short Message Service (SMS). The control of these applications is achieved through the use of a virtual assistant running in the smartphone. The BCI system is based on the visual Row-Column Paradigm (RCP), which allows users to select several control commands and to spell messages that are converted to synthesized voice and received by the mentioned virtual assistant in the smartphone.
