Abstract
A brain computer interface system includes a wearable interface, an eye tracking device, and a client device for determining what object a user is looking at on an electronic display. The client device determines a region on the electronic display based on an estimated user gaze direction received from the eye tracking device. For each virtual object in the gaze region, the client device displays a visual stimulus with a unique frequency. The client device receives from the wearable interface an electrical potential signal measured at the user's brain and evoked by a visual stimulus on the electronic display. The client device identifies the object in the gaze region with a stimulus frequency matching a frequency derived from the potential signal, and executes instructions relating to the object.
