Abstract
A computer-implemented method for identifying tongue movement comprises detecting an electroencephalography ('EEG') signal from an EEG sensor. The EEG sensor is configured to sense the EEG signal generated by a brain in association with a tongue movement. The method also comprises detecting the EMG signal from the EMG sensor. The EMG sensor is configured to sense the EMG signal generated by cranial nerve stimulation of muscles associated with the tongue movement. The method also includes identifying the tongue movement based on the EEG signal and the EMG signal. The method then includes correlating the tongue movement with one of a plurality of tongue location areas.
