Brain-controlled vehicle (BCV) is an already established technology usually designed for disabled patients. This review focuses on the most relevant topics on the brain controlling vehicles, especially considering terrestrial BCV (e.g., mobile car, car simulators, real car, graphical and gaming cars) and aerial BCV, also named BCAV (e.g., real quadcopter, drone, fixed wings, graphical helicopter and aircraft) controlled using bio-signals such as electroencephalogram (EEG), electrooculogram and electromyogram. For instance, EEG-based algorithms detect patterns from motor imaginary cortex area of the brain for intention detection, patterns like event related desynchronization/event related synchronization, state visually evoked potentials, P300, and generated local evoked potential patterns. We have identified that the reported best performing approaches employ machine learning and artificial intelligence optimization methods, namely support vector machine, neural network, linear discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbor, k-means, water drop optimization and chaotic tug of war optimization optimization. We considered the following metrics to analyze the efficiency of the different methods: type and combination of bio-signals, time response, and accuracy values with the statistical analysis. The present work provides an extensive literature review of the key findings of previous ten years, indicating the future perspectives in the field.
