The improved method for robotic devices control with operator's emotions detection

Abstract

There are many alternative human-computer interfaces that are in active development in current time. For example, a user already can send commands to robotic device via brain-computer interface. Unfortunately, this control channel isn't reliable enough to handle critical devices, but it can still be useful to clarify commands from other control channels. The robotic device operator can be influenced by various factors, such as distraction, as result, incorrect input of control command may occur (especially, if we use some "non-traditional" interfaces as gestures recognition or verbal control). It can entail disastrous consequences as harm inflicting to the robotic device, its environment or the operator himself. In this article we are going to examine the emotional state of the robotic device operator, by obtaining the information from brain-computer interface. It's supposed that the use of information about operators emotional state is going to give positive results in quality of recognizing his or her commands and, therefore, give better control of robotic device overall.
