Скачать или смотреть BCI Award 2021 Nomination: A Neuroergonomic BCI with Custom AR for ALS

Individuals living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) experience progressive, and rapid loss of voluntary movement, that can eventually lead to a locked-in clinical picture. Because of the onset of physical disability, people living with ALS (pALS) can benefit tremendously from the advantages of using a BCI as augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). BCIs present the opportunity for communication by spelling and environmental control (TV, lights, etc.) that is free of caregiver assistance. This type of independence and restored autonomy can improve quality of life.
