BYPASS PHYSICAL DISABILITIES
   WITH NERVE-BASED SIGNALS

    World First - NeuroSwitch
Controlled Wheelchair Tested
Nick McLoughlin is proactive: from the day he was diagnosed with ALS, he and his wife Naomi began researching everything they could find about living and prevailing with it.

That's how he found NeuroSwitch, and became one of our lead system testers.  He concluded if he could control his Permobil powered wheelchair with a Jelly Bean® switch, that when the time came, he could control it with a NeuroSwitch.  Logical theory?  Yes.  But Nick is a doer: he ordered everything online, then plugged it in and took it for a spin... 

The result is brilliant: watch how accurately Nick navigates his chair around the room, and adjusts the angles of his feet and seating - all with signals from his left arm, despite quadriplegia

"My husband and I feared he would be
           unable to communicate...

"...everyone with ALS is fearful of being locked in," says Lisa, wife of USAF veteran Gary Griffin.

Tracy Madden reports on 
Gary's success with NeuroSwitch 



Because of NeuroSwitch™, he can communicate with us with less effort and more speed than ever before."

“Gary uses his NeuroSwitch night and day,” she says, to communicate effortlessly with his family, friends, and caregivers at home, and with others on the internet.
Prior to discovering NeuroSwitch, Lisa feared that Gary would not be  able to communicate at all because he had tried “every technology out there andnothing worked”. 


"With NeuroSwitch™, he's writing text three times faster than with any other switch," says Chad Conrad, Gary's carer.

NeuroSwitch has given Gary a stronger sense of independence and removed a great deal of stress and frustration for himself and his family.

 
BEING LOCKED IN DOESN'T HAVE TO MEAN BEING SHUT OUT.  
Imagine controlling a computer or electronics -
  • text and voice communications;
  • emails and web surfing;
  • Assistive Technology (AT) devices and programs -
with the same nerve-based signals that lift a finger - even if you can't lift a finger due to spinal cord injury, motor neuron disease or other trauma or condition.

Based on more than 20 years of research into intuitive Computer Human Interface (CHI) the NeuroSwitch System uses electromyography (EMG) signals in a unique, patented way to enable people with profound disabilities to communicate and control Assistive Technology (AT) text and voice programs and devices such as infrared and wireless remote controllers) when regular switches (proximity, hand, head, eye, "sip-and-puff") switches are not feasible.

Prof. Stephen Hawking is the first in a highly motivated group of people around the world, who have rigorously trialed NeuroSwitch since 2002.

NeuroSwitch responds instantly to a user's changing neuromuscular states, providing unmatched precision, versatility and reliability even during spasticity, athetosis, fatigue or loss of focus.  It is being used by people with severe disabilities around the world.  Ask the people who've already used it.

Enhancing Abilities:  Revolutionary technology - Fundamentally human:
NeuroSwitch aims to Enhance the Dignity and Abilities of everyone using it.
