Toyota has developed a wheelchair controlled by EEG. The story here makes the prototype sound very impressive.
Comments
I am not a specialist of brain, but wheelchiar dealer of Japan.
TOYOTA, the biggest car company in Japan, seems to be developing wheelchair.
The conventional control ways were head control, mouth control, joystic, breath, chin,etc.
I think Japanese welfare system will not able to cover the expensive EGG control.
But if manufacturer can mass-produce EGG control system, price will be down.
I expect its diffusion.
