Driving a real wheelchair by means of a brain-computer interface (BCI) system must be a
reliable option for locked-in patients. Such navigation should also be autonomous, ie, not
depending on a ground chart. In this work we test the feasibility of driving a customized
robotic wheelchair with a BCI system that our group has used in previous studies with virtual
and real mobile robots. The results obtained from a sample of three healthy naïve
participants suggest that it is an effective option, which could ultimately provide locked-in …
