Abstract: This paper focuses on the real time control of better performance. ERD/ERS is mainly elicited when an
autonomous robot through the detection of multiple types of individual has periods of rest followed by intended or actual
motor imagery. The EEG data contains when subject performs movement. SSVEP is elicited under the influence of
imagery motor activity. The motor imagery activity includes flickering visual stimuli presented ipsilaterally or
movements of left hand, right hand, left leg and right leg. For contralaterally. p300 is a waveform elicited in the EEG time
