Abstract

Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) can provide a non-muscular channel of control to stroke patients for motor rehabilitation. This can be achieved through the use of motor imagery (MI) training, involving the modulation of sensorimotor rhythms. The practice of MI has been shown to be able to strengthen key motor pathways when reinforced with rewarding feedback. Recently, there has been a growing evidence of the positive impact of embodied virtual reality (VR) and vibrotactile feedback in MI training. Nonetheless, it is not yet clear what the optimal MI-BCI setup is for evoking stronger sensorimotor rhythms in VR. In this study, we investigate the impact of head-mounted VR, and vibrotactile feedback during MI-BCI training in the induced sensorimotor rhythms. To achieve this, 19 healthy subjects performed MI training with embodied VR between four conditions: head-mounted vs. screen VR, with and without vibrotactile feedback; and two control conditions: abstract MI without embodied feedback, and motor execution. The event-related desynchronization (ERD) and the lateralization indices (LI) of the Alpha and Beta EEG rhythms were analyzed in a within-subject design. Results show that the combination of vibrotactile feedback and embodied VR can induce stronger and more lateralized Alpha ERD; nonetheless, LI was not significantly different across conditions.
头戴式虚拟现实与振动触觉反馈在运动图像脑机接口训练中的作用
脑机接口(bci)可为脑卒中患者的运动康复提供非肌肉控制通道。这可以通过使用运动意象(MI)训练来实现,包括感觉运动节奏的调节。MI的练习已经被证明能够在奖励反馈的强化下加强关键的运动通路。近年来,越来越多的证据表明,具身虚拟现实(VR)和振动触觉反馈在心肌梗死训练中的积极影响。尽管如此,目前尚不清楚在VR中唤起更强烈的感觉运动节奏的最佳MI-BCI设置是什么。在这项研究中,我们研究了头戴式VR和振动触觉反馈在MI-BCI训练中对诱导的感觉运动节奏的影响。为了实现这一目标,19名健康受试者在四种情况下进行了嵌入VR的MI训练:头戴式VR和屏幕VR,有和没有振动触觉反馈;两种控制条件:无具身反馈的抽象MI和运动执行。采用受试者内设计分析了脑电节律的事件相关去同步(ERD)和侧化指数(LI)。结果表明,振动触觉反馈与具身VR相结合可诱导更强、更偏侧的Alpha ERD;然而,不同条件下的LI没有显著差异。
