Monitoring cerebral processing of gustatory stimulation and perception using emotiv epoc

The affective and cognitive states of the user can be effectively monitored by electroencephalography (EEG). The human taste stimulation and perception produces changes in the EEG signals of the brain at several subdivisions of insula, orbitofrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex. In this work we propose a method which can be used to monitor these signals elicited by taste stimulation and perception using a simple gaming EEG device. Emotion elicited by taste recall is stronger than stimulus elicited emotion will be re-established but with a gaming EEG device. The results are presented for a number of subjects and obtained using the research edition of the gaming EEG headset.
