Electric wheelchairs are some of the most important devices to assist physically handicapped persons. This paper presents the concept of brain controlled electric wheelchair designed for people who are not able to use other interfaces such as a hand joystick, and in particular for patients suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The objective is to control the direction of an electric wheelchair using noninvasive scalp electroencephalogram (EEG).
