Abstract

Neuro-feedback is a technology that can identify your brain state and you can intentionally change your brain state. People with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder need this technology but existing neuro-feedback training has a problem, which is not interesting and maintains a static state for a long time. In this paper, we proposed and implemented a neuro-feedback game that combines neuro-feedback and gun-shooting games to enhance concentration training. The neuro-feedback game has been implemented with the design of EEG measurement system, game controller and gamesoft. We hope that this study will be useful for people suffering from attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder.

뉴로피드백(Neuro feedback)은 자신의 뇌 상태를 파악하고, 뇌 상태를 의도적으로 변화시킬 수 있다는 기술로, 주의력 결핍 및 과잉 행동 장애를 겪는 사람에게 그 필요성이 대두됨에도 불구하고, 기존의 뉴로피드백 훈련은 정적인 상태를 장시간 유지하며 흥미를 주지 못하는 문제가 있었다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 집중력 강화를 위하여 뉴로피드백과 건-슈팅 게임을 결합하는 뉴로피드백 게임을 제안 및 구현하였다. 뇌파 측정 시스템, 게임제어기 그리고 게임소프트의 설계로 뉴로피드백 게임이 구현되었으며, 본 연구로 주의력 결핍 및 과잉 행동 장애를 겪는 사람에게 뉴로피드백 훈련이 유용하게 사용되기를 기대한다.
