“…Several projects have followed this strategy with effectiveness. Neuro-controlled gameplay that allows teams to manage a simulated quadcopter with their brain waves has been proposed by Tezza et al [21]. e game also uses a BCI to gauge player interest.…”

“Audience Engagement (AE)” describes how a stage performance affects the audience’s thoughts, provokes a bodily response, and spurs cognitive growth. With little audience involvement, theatre performing arts like opera typically have difficulty keeping audiences’ attention. The brain-computer interaction (BCI) technology could be used in opera performances to alter the audience’s emotional experience. Nevertheless, for such BCI systems to function, they must accurately identify their participants’ present emotional states. Although difficult to evaluate, audience participation is a vital sign of how well an opera performs. Practical methodological approaches for real-time perception and comprehension of audience emotions include psychological and physiological assessments. Hence, a multimodal emotional state detection technique (MESDT) for enhancing the AE in opera performance using BCI has been proposed. Three essential steps make up a conceptual MESDT architecture. An electroencephalogram (EEG) and other biological signs from the audience are first captured. Second, the acquired signals are processed, and the BCI tries to determine the user’s present psychological response. Third, an adaptive performance stimulus (APS) is triggered to enhance AE in opera performance, as determined by a rule base. To give the opera audience a high-quality viewing experience, the immersive theatre performance has been simulated. Fifty individuals have been used in the experimental assessment and performance studies. The findings demonstrated that the proposed technology had been able to accurately identify the decline in AE and that performing stimuli had a good impact on enhancing AE during an opera performance. It has been further shown that the suggested design improves the overall performance of AE by 5.8% when compared to a typical BCI design (one that uses EEG characteristics solely) for the proposed MESDT framework with BCI.

“…Another example is a special adaptation of the BreakOut game for BCI which achieved a control level for different subjects of about 80% [18]. As shown in other research, the controlling effectiveness highly depends on the level of engagement of the user [24]. All of the abovementioned examples show that BCI has been a field of research in video games for many years, but its usefulness in current, complex and popular video games is still nonexistent.…”

Nowadays, control in video games is based on the use of a mouse, keyboard and other controllers. A Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a special interface that allows direct communication between the brain and the appropriate external device. Brain Computer Interface technology can be used for commercial purposes, for example as a replacement for a keyboard, mouse or other controller. This article presents a method of controlling video games using the EMOTIV EPOC + Neuro Headset as a controller.
