Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus for neuro-robotic tracking point selection are disclosed. A described example robot control system includes a feature and image presenter, a classifier, a visual-servo controller, and a robot interface. The feature and image presenter is to display an image of an object, emphasize one of more potential trackable features of the object, receive a selection of the emphasized feature, and determine an offset from the selected feature as a goal. The classifier is to classify a mental response to the emphasized features, and to determine that the mental response corresponds to the selection of one of the emphasized features. The visual-servo controller is to track the emphasized feature corresponding to an identified brain signal. The robot interface is to generate control information to effect a robot action based on the emphasized feature, the visual-servo controller to track the emphasized feature while the robot action is being effected.
