Key Technologies and Development Directions of Brain-Computer Interface Technology for Manned Space Mission

The application of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology in manned space mission can improve the safety of astronauts and the reliability of space operation. The BCI technology for manned space mission is introduced firstly, and then the application of BCI technology in manned space mission such as the control of astronauts' living environment, the rapid response of astronauts' emergency system, the flexible control of space manipulator, the remote operation and emergency maintenance of space robots is given. Then key technologies of BCI in manned space engineering such as Non-invasive EEG signal acquisition and recognition of astronauts, efficient transmission of brain-computer signals in space mission, high- precision control of BCI, Rapid feedback of BCI in spacecraft engineering is discussed. And the Impact of space environment on BCI hardware and software for space engineering is analyzed. At last, future development directions of BCI technology for manned space Mission is proposed.
