Looking at beauties - Another possibility to brain computer interface?

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Almost every healthy, heterosexual man cannot resist the temptation of beautiful women. It is even said that only looking at beauties could help men fresh minds. In this study, we investigated that how male brains react to photos of sexy women. Six healthy males participated in the experiment looking at photos of sexy women in bikinis; all of them presented N170 and P300, which meant the processing of faces and attention allocation respectively. Moreover, classification of the brainwaves of looking at sexy women photos and other tasks, such as listening to music, reached a high accuracy. This suggested another possibility to Brain Computer Interface (BCI) besides the common tasks. It is possible to train the subjects and realize an interesting but simple BCI in the future.
