Published in 2019 at "Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation"

DOI: 10.1186/s12984-019-0626-5

Abstract: BackgroundPeople with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (PwALS) in the advanced phase are critically affected by an almost total loss of mobility and severe communication problems. Scanning access based on the patient’s interaction with a sensor (or… read more here.
