Brain-Computer Interface with Adaptations for High-Speed, Accurate, and Intuitive User Interactions

A method, comprising:

• receiving oculomotor signals from an eye-tracking device;
• generating and presenting a stimulus, via a control interface and to a user, the stimulus including a sticky marker and a set of control items associated with respective actions;
• detecting, based on the oculomotor signals, a passage of gaze of the user over the sticky marker;
• upon detecting the passage of the gaze, grabbing the sticky marker on the user interface and allow the user to drag the sticky marker by tracking a trajectory of the user's gaze;
• detecting, based on the oculomotor signals, foveation to one of the control items from the set of control items while dragging the sticky marker;
• upon detecting foveation to one of the control items from the set of control items while dragging the sticky marker, dropping the sticky marker on the one of the control items from the set of control items to enable selection of the one of the control items from the set of control items;
• and
• implementing a respective action associated with the selected one of the control items from the set of control items.

A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the instructions comprising code to cause the processor to:

• receive oculomotor signals from an eye-tracking device;
• generate and present a stimulus, via a control interface and to a user, the stimulus including a sticky marker and a set of control items associated with respective actions;
• detect, based on the oculomotor signals, a passage gaze of the user over the sticky marker;
• upon detecting the passage of the gaze, grab the sticky marker on the user interface and allow the user to drag the sticky marker by tracking a trajectory of the user's gaze;
• detect, based on the oculomotor signals, foveation to one of the control items from the set of control items while dragging the sticky marker;
• upon detecting foveation to one of the control items from the set of control items while dragging the sticky marker, drop the sticky marker on the one of the control items from the set of control items to enable selection of the one of the control items from the set of control items;
• and
• implement a respective action associated with the selected one of the control items from the set of control items.
