Abstract

Today, the interface between the brain and the computer can be designed using intelligent tools. This two-way communication that is named the Brain–computer interface can make new changes in the world of science. Today, with the development of smartphones, the use of applications and social networks has formed an important part of people’s communication. Therefore, the tools must be designed in such a way as to cover the needs of all members of society. For example, for improving the quality of living of aged people, they need to use these facilities with other people. So designing intelligence tools should be such that they can be implemented with the mental decision of people. Also as aging has some effects on activities of daily routines or the human body and their brains, it’s important to settle the difficulties in communicating, walking, drive safely, the lifestyle of people, and their health. In this research, the challenging discussion of the effect of a brain–computer interface technology on aged people’s life system is discussed and the role of the user interface is examined. Also, deep learning is one of the most important algorithms to make the patterns of subjects. Robots to ...
