While BCIs can differ widely in the nature of the physiological components they

use, in the signal processing they perform, in the feedback they provide, or in the
underlying training and operation paradigm, they all need the same four elements:
EEG data collection, signal processing, an output device and manual or automatic
parameterization and configuration. Therefore, it seems to be a natural choice to
partition the system into four modules with respective functionality. Figure 5.1
illustrates a high–level overview of this partitioning scheme.
It is conceivable that for certain BCIs, the chosen decomposition might be
overkill, or even unfavorable, but still it seemed to be the most appropriate for
a variety of systems.
