ABSTRACT
This paper considers the development of a brain driven car, which would be of great help to the physically disabled people. Since these cars will rely only on what the individual is thinking they will hence not require any physical movement on the part of the individual. The car integrates signals from a variety of sensors like video, weather monitor, anti-collision etc. it also has an automatic navigation system in case of emergency. The car works on the asynchronous mechanism of artificial intelligence. It’s a great advance of technology which will make the disabled, abled. In the 40s and 50s, a number of researchers explored the connection between neurology, information theory, and cybernetics. Some of them built machines that used electronic networks to exhibit rudimentary intelligence, such as W.

A brain-computer interface (BCI), sometimes
called a direct neural interface or a brain-machine
interface, is a direct communication pathway
between a human or animal brain (or brain cell
culture) and an external device. In one-way BCIs,
computers either accept commands from the brain or
send signals to it (for example, to restore vision) but
not both. Two-way BCIs would allow brains and
external devices to exchange information in both
directions but have yet to be successfully implanted
in animals or humans.
In this definition, the word brain means the
brain or nervous system of an organic life
form rather than the mind. Computer means any
processing or computational device, from simple
circuits to silicon
chips (including hypothetical future technologies
such as quantum computing)
BRAIN – COMPUTER INTERFACE
Brain-computer interfaces will increase acceptance by offering customized, intelligent help and training, especially for the non-expert user. Development of such a flexible interface paradigm raises several challenges in the areas of machine perception and automatic explanation. The teams doing research in this field have developed a single-position, brain-controlled switch that responds to specific patterns detected in spatiotemporal electroencephalograms (EEG) measured from the human scalp. We refer to this initial design as the Low- Frequency
AUTOMATIC SECURITY SYSTEM
The EEG of the driver is monitored continually. When it drops less than 4 Hz then the driver is in an unstable state. A message is given to the driver for confirmation and waits for sometime, to continue the drive. A confirmed reply activates the program for automatic drive. If the driver is doesn’t give reply then the computer prompts the driver for the destination before the drive.
AUTOMATIC NAVIGATION SYSTEM
As the computer is based on artificial intelligence it automatically monitors every route the car travels and stores it in its map database for future use. The map database is analyzed and the shortest route to the destination is chosen. With traffic monitoring system provided by xm satellite radio the computer drives the car automatically. Video and anti-collision sensors mainly assist this drive by providing continuous live feed of the environment up to 180 m, which is sufficient for the purpose.
CONCLUSION
When the above requirements are satisfied and if this car becomes cost effective then we shall witness a revolutionary change in the society where the demarcation between the abler and the disabled vanishes. Thus the integration of bioelectronics with automotive systems is essential to develop efficient and futuristic vehicles, which shall be witnessed soon helping the disabled in every manner in the field of transportation.
