Özet

Neurofeedback is a learning strategy that helps to alter brain waves called electroencephalography (EEG). Neurofeedback technique is used in the treatment of various diseases such as epilepsy, sleep disorders, attention deficit and learning disability. In the first stage of this study, a device was developed in which the EEG signals are collected and transferred to the computer. In the second stage of the study, the obtained EEG signals were analyzed by the discrete wavelet transform method, and according to the analysis result, a system was designed by which the patients could be treated using visual feedback. The usability of the visual feedback part based on theta/ beta protocol with EEG subbands has been tested in real time.
