Neural-Directed Wheelchair
|
- The InvenTeam devised an alternative method for quadriplegics and amputees to move.
- Using an electrode cap to translate EEG M-rhythm or neurosignals from the user’s brain to a microprocessor in the wheelchair, the user can move by just thinking about it; no physical movement is required.
- InvenTeam teacher Paul Cammer donned the electrode cap as the test subject during wheelchair demos at the MIT finale event.
- The InvenTeam received a 2009 Continuation Grant.
