Abstract

An apparatus and a method for selecting an item using a brain wave signal are disclosed. The method for selecting an item includes: receiving, by a receiver, information on at least one item from a service point; displaying, by a display, the received information on a predetermined area in a mobility; in response to the displayed information, collecting, by a sensor, a brain wave signal for at least one passenger in the mobility for a predetermined time; and determining, by a controller, the passenger's choice by analyzing the collected brain wave signal.

Claims (46)

1. An apparatus for selecting an item using a brain wave signal, the apparatus comprising:

a receiver configured to receive information on at least one item from a service point;

a display configured to display the received information on a predetermined area in a mobility;

in response to the displayed information, a sensor configured to collect a brain wave signal for at least one passenger in the mobility for a predetermined time; and

a controller configured to analyze the collected brain wave signal and determine a choice of the at least one passenger,

wherein the display is configured to display the received information on an item on the predetermined area in the mobility based on a predetermined frequency including information on output frequency, and

wherein the output frequency is differently set according to the received information on the item displayed on the predetermined area.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the collected brain wave signal comprises a steady-state visually evoked potential (SSVEP).

3. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the service point is a place located within a predetermined range from the mobility and provides a driver through (DT) service.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the received information on the at least one item includes at least one of an image of item, a type of item, a price of item, a number of items, a name of item, a new menu, an event, and a discount, which are provided by the service point.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the predetermined area is a predetermined area within the display capable of being projected in the mobility.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein at least one of a form or a size of the predetermined area is determined based on the received information on the at least on item.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the predetermined area is determined based on at least one of a position of the at least one passenger or a position of a gaze of the at least one passenger while the mobility is running.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the controller is configured to control the mobility or transmit predetermined information to the service point based on the determined choice of the at least one passenger.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the controller is further configured to determine whether the determined choice of the at least one passenger meets an intention of the at least one passenger.

10. A method for selecting an item using a brain wave signal, the method comprising:

receiving, by a receiver, information on at least one item from a service point;

displaying, by a display, the received information on a predetermined area in a mobility;

in response to the displayed information, collecting, by a sensor, a brain wave signal for at least one passenger in the mobility for a predetermined time; and

determining, by a controller, a choice of the at least one passenger by analyzing the collected brain wave signal,

wherein displaying the received information on the predetermined area comprises displaying the received information on an item on the predetermined area in the mobility based on a predetermined frequency including information on output frequency, and

wherein the output frequency is differently set according to the received information on the item displayed on the predetermined area.

11. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the collected brain wave signal comprises a steady-state visually evoked potential (SSVEP).

12. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the service point is a place located within a predetermined range from the mobility and provides a driver through (DT) service.

13. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the received information on the at least one item includes at least one of an image of item, a type of item, a price of item, a number of items, a name of item, a new menu, an event, or a discount, which are provided by the service point.

14. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the predetermined area is a predetermined area within the display capable of being projected in the mobility.

15. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein at least one of a form or a size of the predetermined area is determined based on the received information on the at least one item.

16. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the predetermined area is determined based on at least one of a position of the at least one passenger or a position of a gaze of the at least one passenger while the mobility is running.

17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

based on the determined choice of the at least one passenger, controlling the mobility or transmitting predetermined information to the service point.

18. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining whether the determined choice of the at least one passenger meets an intention of the at least one passenger.
