1. Method of producing a communication or control signal using the mu wave from the brain of a person, comprising:

  • monitoring the mu wave from the brain of the person;

    producing changes in the mu wave by performing movement or movement rehearsal by the person of a particular body part or parts of the person to attenuate the mu wave of the person in a selected pattern from the value of the mu wave when the person is neither moving nor thinking of moving;

    measuring said mu wave attenuation from the brain of the person caused by movement or movement rehearsal of said body part or parts of the person;

    converting said measured mu wave attenuation to a communication or control signal by signal processing the measured mu wave to obtain a power spectrum and comparing the peak power spectrum value to a predetermined threshold value.
