In an EEG (electroencephalogram) system to detect brain waves from a subject, the adverse effect on the EEG recording of artifact due to head, body and eye movements is reduced. A head and body movement reference signal can be provided by an accelerometer, motion detector or, alternatively, spatial average of EEG channels. Eye motion sensors are used as a reference for eye movement artifacts. A composite reference signal consists of the head, body and eye movement reference signals. The contaminated EEG is the primary input to the adaptive movement and eye artifact canceler, in which an adaptive filter estimates the contaminants in the measured EEG data, and then subtracts them from the primary signal to obtain the corrected EEG data.
