Gaming control becomes popular based on the development of human-computer interface (HCI). Among many kinds of physiological signals, Electrooculography (EOG) signal is more stable which can be used to control HCI systems based on eye movement detection and signal processing methods. However, there are currently no effective multi-directional classification methods for monitoring eye movements. In addition, many EOG-based HCI systems have been developed with traditional wet electrodes. Those traditional electrodes require conductive gel and skin preparation on some users. Here, we describe a signal processing method used in a wireless EOG-based HCI system with dry electrodes for detecting eye movements to have 9 options. This system includes wireless EOG signal acquisition device, dry electrodes and an EOG signal processing algorithm. The EOG signal processing algorithm is based on 9 options of eye movement and blink signals. The results demonstrated an application of baseball game control using the proposed wireless HCI system. This system provides an effective and convenient method for eye movement detection.

Electrooculography (EOG) signals can be used to control human-computer interface (HCI) systems, if properly classified. The ability to measure and process these signals may help HCI users to overcome many of the physical limitations and inconveniences in daily life. However, there are currently no effective multidirectional classification methods for monitoring eye movements. Here, we describe a classification method used in a wireless EOG-based HCI device for detecting eye movements in eight directions. This device includes wireless EOG signal acquisition components, wet electrodes and an EOG signal classification algorithm. The EOG classification algorithm is based on extracting features from the electrical signals corresponding to eight directions of eye movement (up, down, left, right, up-left, down-left, up-right, and down-right) and blinking. The recognition and processing of these eight different features were achieved in real-life conditions, demonstrating that this device can reliably measure the features of EOG signals. This system and its classification procedure provide an effective method for identifying eye movements. Additionally, it may be applied to study eye functions in real-life conditions in the near future.
