interface (BMI), and junior sessions] and
24 e-poster sessions. The oral session
program contained 410 regular, 288
special, 81 BMI, 36 junior, 16 workshop,
and two demonstration presentations.
The types of submitted papers can be
found in Table 1.
The Organization Committee took
social media activities into great consideration. For that purpose, two dedicated pages were used on both Facebook and Twitter, one for SMC 2016 and
another for the SMC Junior 2016 conference. These social media tools generated impressive activities in the weeks
surrounding the conference (Figure 3).
Conference Support
Three international firms exhibited
their latest products during SMC
2016. The Hungarian company Lombiq introduced its newest development called Hastlayer. ANT Neuro, a
Dutch firm, advertised its solutions
for high-performance electroencephalograms (EEG), electromyograms,
transcranial magnetic stimulation, and
other signal detection and processing
techniques. Finally, g.tec from Austria
introduced its new EEG systems. At
the same time, g.tec sponsored one of
the awards of the first organized Brain
and Vision Hackathon as well.
International Brain and
Vision Hackathon
For the first time in the SMCS's history, the international Brain and Vision
Hackathon student competition was
held, 8-9 October, at the conference
venue (Figure 4). Both SMC 2016
attendees and non-SMC 2016 attendees participated in activities involving BMI, brain-computer interfacing
