Abstract

The brain produces weak electrical signals that can be measured from the skull. Electroencephalography (EEG) is a method that provides monitoring electrical activity of the brain with the electrical methods. Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a system that converts the electrical signals produced by the brain to the signals that can be interpreted by a computer or an electronic system. In the last decades, brain signals could be measured with systems requiring high costs, but nowadays, many EEG devices are available for personal use. These EEG devices and systems have their signal transformation methods. These EEG devices and their SDKs are available for developers and EEG devices are used for purposes such as playing game, psychological relief, monitoring body by daily users. In this study, 'Flying Brain ' game has been developed as BCI based and development stages have been discussed. NeuroSky Mindwave Mobile has been used as EEG device. The game is controlled by attention and meditation measurements obtained by converting the signals received from the user. In the game, the opportunities consist in case of high attention and meditation that will allow players to gain extra points. Consequently, the BCI game was interpreted in terms of Human-Computer Interaction and improvements can be made for BCI based games were discussed
