Lack of concentration is one of the challenges of modern life, but research shows it can be improved through daily training and basic rehabilitation. Furthermore, people can work on enhancing their concentration levels even if they don’t currently struggle with it. Could games be used as a tool to boost our concentration?

BCES is a video game designed and developed for graduation project using Brain-Computer Interface device, Emotiv EPOC in the final year in Computer Engineering undergraduate study at Middle East Technical University (METU).
The primary goal of the BCES project is to develop reliable concentration-enhancement software using neurofeedback technology via a brain–computer interface (BCI) device. The software monitors and records the user’s brain activity over an extended period using EEG, aiming to improve concentration levels effectively. It features two main components: well-designed, compact concentration games, and an advanced artificial intelligence system with strong planning capabilities that dynamically adjusts game parameters. Together, these elements provide users with a straightforward yet engaging training experience.
