Playing with your brain: brain-computer interfaces and games

In this workshop we investigate a possible role of brain-computer interaction in computer games and entertainment computing. The assumption is that brain activity, whether it is consciously controlled and directed by the user or just recorded in order to obtain information about the user's affective state, should be modeled in order to provide appropriate feedback and a context where brain activity information is one of the multi-modal interaction modalities that is provided to the user. Categories and Subject Descriptors H5.2. [Information interfaces and presentation]: User Interfaces. I.2 [Artificial Intelligence]: Cognitive simulation, Philosophical foundations, Games, Analogies. General Terms Algorithms, Design, Economics, Human Factors. Keywords Games, Brain-Computer Interfacing, Affect, Multimodal Interaction.
