Objective: Performing foot motor imagery is accompanied by a peri-imagery ERD and a post-imagery beta ERS (beta rebound). Our aim was to study whether the post-imagery beta rebound is a suitable feature for a simple brain switch. Such a brain switch is a specifically designed brain-computer interface (BCI) with the aim to detect only one predefined brain state (e.g. EEG pattern) in ongoing brain activity. Method: One EEG (Laplacian) recorded at the vertex during cue-based brisk foot motor imagery was analysed in 5 healthy subjects. The peri-imagery ERD and the post-imagery beta rebound (ERS) were analysed in detail between 6 and 40 Hz and classified with two support vector machines. Results: The ERD was detected in ongoing EEG (simulation of asynchronous BCI) with a true positive rate (TPR) of 28.4% +/- 13.5 and the beta rebound with a TPR of 59.2% +/- 20.3. In single runs with 30 cues each, the TPR for beta rebound detection was 78.6% +/- 12.8. The false positive rate was always kept below 10%. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the beta rebound at Cz during foot motor imagery is a relatively stable and reproducible phenomenon detectable in single EEG trials. Significance: Our results indicate that the beta rebound is a suitable feature to realize a brain switch with one single EEG (Laplacian) channel only.
