Software Platform for Learning about Brain Wave Acquisition and Analysis

Abstract

Using brain waves, for user authentication, is an important emerging technology. The University of Defence, in the Belgrade and the Serbian Ministry of Defence (MoD), have recognized the importance of biometric applications in identity management. As a result, an intensive research, under the project named "Access control management of protected resources in Ministry of Defence and Serbian Armed Forces computer networks based on multimodal user identification", has been conducted over the last few years. The main contribution of this paper, is a software platform, for learning about brain wave acquisition and analysis. This platform was developed as a part of the project, with the main goal to improve and increase participant's knowledge in biometrics. A research study was conducted, with the aim of comparing traditional learning methods and learning methods based on the developed platform.
