One device, developed by researchers in Alberta, uses brain-computer interface (BCI) technology to turn a child’s thoughts into action.
That switch output comes from the Think2Switch, a device compatible with most commercially available BCI headsets, as well as numerous devices that are switch-adapted, meaning they are customized to be more accessible.
The device has helped the Sonnenbergs integrate the technology into Claire’s day-to-day life. Using it, she can now participate in preparing dinner, baking and family games.
