Abstract
Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one type of brain disorder suffered by 6.5% of children in Thailand. The well-known method for treating is by using the drugs. However, using drug might lead to some side effects, for example, vomit, dizziness and headache. To avoid these kinds of side effects, neurofeedback is an alternative way for treating ADHD. By maintaining the brain blood oxygenation or hemoencephalogram (HEG) in some specific levels, the patient can efficiently control the target devices. In this paper, we propose the framework for developing the home-made HEG neurofeedback device. The proposed calibration method leads to an alternative treatment. Racing car game is used as the visual and auditory feedbacks for controlling the HEG. Preliminary results illustrate the promising levels of HEG based on the proposed calibration methods.
