Assessment of the Cyberlink Control System for Use by the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Patient

Assessment of the Cyberlink Control System for Use by the ALS Patient

The goal of this project is to determine whether this device is a practical and realistic means for ALS patients to operate their computers with only the use of facial, brainwave, and eye movements. This study is intended to evaluate both the complexity of the system and the degree to which complications of ALS (such as severity of involuntary movements) may interfere with the use of cyberlink.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Those aged 18-75 diagnosed with probable or definite ALS.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Those with decision impairment will not be considered.
