In the last decade, numerous researches in the field of electro-encephalography (EEG) and brain-computer-interface (BCI) have been accomplished. BCI has been developed to aid disabled/partially disabled people to efficiently communicate with the community. This paper presents a control tool using the Neurosky Mindwave headset, which detects brainwaves (voluntary blinks and attention) to form a brain-
computer interface (BCI) by receiving the system signals from the frontal lobe. This paper proposed an alternative computer input device for those disabled people (who are physically challenged) rather than the conventional one. The work suggested to use two virtual keyboard designs. The conducted experiment revealed a significant result in developing user printing skills on PCs. Encouraging results (1.55-1.8 word per minute (WPM)) were obtained in this research in comparison to other studies.
