Since past few years, major advances have been done in the approach for interaction of users with machines. Standard physical interactive devices for computers were keyboard and mouse, but now more user-centric devices are being developed to deeply incorporate them into the lifestyle of users.

Most of the previous devices required an action to be performed for interacting with the machine. EEG counters this point by controlling the actions via brains stimuli functions. This in turn becomes life-saving for people with limited motor skills due to diseases and disabilities like paralyzed patients. This solution is also known as Mind–Machine Interface or “Brain Machine Interface” which is a direct path from brain to an external device.
