Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) use brain activity to control external devices, thereby
enabling severely disabled patients to interact with the environment. A variety of invasive …

Strokes are a growing cause of mortality and many stroke survivors suffer from motor
impairment as well as other types of disabilities in their daily life activities. To treat these …

Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) can lose all muscle-based routes of
communication as motor neuron degeneration progresses, and ultimately, they may be left …

Despite partial success, communication has remained impossible for persons suffering from
complete motor paralysis but intact cognitive and emotional processing, a state called …

BACKGROUND: Motor paralysis after stroke has devastating consequences for the patients,
families and caregivers. Although therapies have improved in the recent years, traditional …

Brain computer interface (BCI) technology has been proposed for motor neurorehabilitation,
motor replacement and assistive technologies. It is an open question whether proprioceptive …

Restoring communication for people with locked-in syndrome remains a challenging clinical
problem without a reliable solution. Recent studies have shown that people with paralysis …

Complete locked-in syndrome (CLIS) resulting from late-stage amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
(ALS) is characterised by loss of motor function and eye movements. The absence of …

Abstract Objective Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) aimed at restoring communication to
people with severe neuromuscular disabilities often use event-related potentials (ERPs) in …

Individuals with complex communication needs often use alternative access technologies to
control their augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices, their computers …
