1. A method of controlling a brain computer interface, the method comprising:
providing a visual display to an individual, where the visual display includes a timing indicator, an initial reference point and a first identified cue point associated with a first command, the first identified cue point being spaced along a path at a first distance from the initial reference point, the visual display configured to show the timing indicator moving along an entirety of the path starting at the initial reference point and ending after a path length, where time of movement of the timing indicator over the first distance comprises a first duration time;
obtaining a monitoring signal from the individual while displaying the visual display;
establishing a first review portion of the monitoring signal starting at an initial time that corresponds to when the timing indicator is at the initial reference point and ending after the first duration time;
assessing the first review portion for a first evidence signal that occurs within the first review portion; and
issuing the first command from the brain computer interface if the first evidence signal matches a first predetermined signal pattern.
