About
Dr. Jakob Jakobsen is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and assistive robotics, with additional expertise in precise spatial localization for autonomous systems. His most impactful contribution is the development of a mind-controlled drone system, detailed in his highly cited 2019 paper (45 citations). This work introduced an innovative multiclass Steady-State Visually Evoked Potential (SSVEP) based BCI, designed to restore the ability to explore and interact with the world for individuals with neurodegenerative diseases. By translating neural signals directly into drone flight commands, Jakobsen’s research opens new frontiers for assistive devices, offering unprecedented freedom and agency to those with severe motor impairments. Beyond BCI, he has also advanced the field of pose estimation, developing an accurate fiducial mapping technique using manifold optimization (2018). This work is critical for applications in augmented reality and robotics, enabling robust tracking of moving objects. Dr. Jakobsen’s work uniquely bridges human neural control with autonomous systems, demonstrating profound potential for both clinical rehabilitation and next-generation human-robot interaction.
