Description
Braingate is a research group dedicated to Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) for those with neurological diseases. Their specific focus are on diseases that impact limb activity such as ALS; they work on many functions from assistive speech to movement restoration. Some of their publications include: a haptic stimulation to include in BCIs so that those with paralysis can better control their environment, an experiment on whether or no if speech will negatively affect BCIs meant for motor movement, and an in-depth review of these technologies for rehabilitations.
