Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Existing steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) face challenges in balancing user comfort and system performance.
  • Peripheral vision stimulation in SSVEPs offers enhanced user comfort, but the influence of stimulus color is not well understood.
  • Investigating stimulus color effects is crucial for optimizing peripheral SSVEP-BCIs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the impact of stimulus color on peripheral SSVEP performance and user comfort.
  • To identify an optimal stimulus color for peripheral SSVEP-based BCIs.
  • To develop and validate a high-performance peripheral SSVEP-BCI using the chosen color.

Main Methods:

  • Evaluated four stimulus colors (blue, green, red, white) using ultra-low frequency (2-3.32 Hz) SSVEP stimuli.
  • Selected the optimal color based on performance and subjective comfort for a 12-target peripheral SSVEP-BCI.
  • Employed the Task-Discriminant Component Analysis (TDCA) algorithm for SSVEP detection.
  • Verified system feasibility through offline (13 participants) and online (11 participants) experiments.

Main Results:

  • Offline experiments showed no significant differences in accuracy or information transfer rates (ITRs) among colors.
  • Green stimulation yielded the highest subjective comfort ratings.
  • Online experiments with a green-stimulated 12-target BCI achieved 89.93% accuracy and 47.96 bits/min ITR.

Conclusions:

  • A comfort-driven color selection strategy is effective for peripheral ultra-low-frequency SSVEP stimulation.
  • Comparable performance can be maintained across different stimulus colors.
  • Findings offer practical guidance for developing more visually tolerable peripheral SSVEP-BCI systems.
