NeuroLink is a low cost, modular Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) for use by persons physically incapable of operating a mouse and keyboard. In particular, it is being developed as a system to allow advanced stage ALS patients to communicate with the outside world using a computer. People with ALS gradually lose their voluntary motor functions—the ability to move an arm, finger, or toe, to make a face, to speak or move one’s lips, or to blink one’s eyes. They are basically trapped in a non-functioning shell. By restoring, on even a limited basis, their ability to communicate, NeuroLink will drastically improve their quality of life while avoiding the prohibitive cost of the existing commercial solutions.
