The article presents the results of research in controlling the mobile application with the EEG signals and eye blinking. Authors proposed a prototype solution of a brain-computer interface that can be used by people with total motor impairment to control chosen mobile application on their mobile phone. There was a NeuroSky MindWave Mobile device used during experiments. Two software tools for mobile devices were specially implemented. First one helps to analyse the EEG signals and recognize eye blinks, second one - interprets them and executes assigned actions. Different configurations of settings were used during the studies. They included: single blink or double blink, level of focus, period of focus. Experiments results show that a man equipped with a personal EEG sensor and eye blinking detector can remotely touchless use mobile applications installed on smartphones or tablets.
