Background:

Traditional brain-computer interface (BCI) spellers often use wet electrodes, leading to cumbersome procedures and poor user experience.
Steady-state visually evoked potential (SSVEP) paradigms, while accurate, can cause visual fatigue due to continuous stimulation.
Existing BCI systems have limitations in the number of controllable instructions, especially in dry electrode environments.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a flexible and comfortable BCI speller system utilizing dry electrodes.
To enhance the number of controllable instructions in a BCI speller by introducing a novel stimulus paradigm.
To reduce user fatigue associated with SSVEP-based BCI systems.

Main Methods:

Designed a brain-controlled switch integrating electrooculography (EOG) and SSVEP signals for improved BCI speller flexibility.
Developed a time-space frequency conversion (TSFC) SSVEP stimulus paradigm to increase the variety of SSVEP sub-stimulus blocks.
Implemented a BCI speller system using dry electrodes and the TSFC-SSVEP paradigm.

Main Results:

The brain-controlled switch achieved an accuracy of up to 94.64%.
The 60-character TSFC-SSVEP speller demonstrated 90.18% accuracy and an information transmission rate (ITR) of 117.05 bits/min.
All seven participating subjects could flexibly control the speller and output specified characters rapidly.

Conclusions:

A multi-instruction SSVEP speller based on dry electrodes and EOG-SSVEP signal integration offers flexible and comfortable BCI control.
The TSFC-SSVEP paradigm significantly expands the instruction set for BCI systems in dry electrode settings.
Future work will focus on employing trained algorithms with the TSFC-SSVEP paradigm to further enhance overall system performance.
