ABSTRACT:
An interface device in accordance with the present claimed invention is an interface device4that intervenes between a measuring means2that measures brain activities of a subject H and an object31to be controlled, and that comprises a reference signal storing part D1that stores a brain activity signal measured at a time when the subject H conducts predetermined thinking different from direct thinking in order to control the object31to be controlled in a desired mode as a reference signal, a discriminating part41that compares the brain activity signal measured by the measuring means2with the reference signal and discriminates whether or not the thinking of the subject H is the predetermined thinking, and a controlling part42that controls the object31to be controlled in the desired mode when the discriminating part41discriminates that the thinking of the subject H is the predetermined thinking.
