At the event, teams spent 60 days creating devices or prototypes that would interact
The winning team “Punks of the British Empire” included students from the Polytechnic Institute (PI) of FEFU, who will receive an invitation to the federal hackathon “Technologies of Opportunities”.
As the participants said, their project is twocontrol systems based on neural interface. The first allows you to transmit commands using vision: the device tracks the position of the eyes, the direction of gaze, after which it interprets the received data and converts it into a digital signal.
The second system is a neural interface based onelectromyographic sensors. They register the tension of the given muscle groups, after which the received signals are processed and, as in the first case, are transmitted to the control object.
The system is primarily intended for peoplelimited capabilities. Thanks to the development, even almost completely paralyzed people will be able to independently control a wheelchair or, say, use a computer. The team also noted that their work is low cost.
