Hi All

Regarding this locked-in patient request, I just picked this up (below) from
our UK discussion group and thought it might be useful. There is a full
discussion that followed, including which of these require software packages
to support them, but it's a starting point.

Cheers

Jeremy

Hi All
I am trying to pull together what EMG switch options are available - ideally
ones that don't rely on a software package running. Have I missed anything?

- PluxSwitch: http://www.plux.info/ - But needs the PC.
- EMGSwitch: http://emgswitch.com
- Twitch switch:

_Finger_And_Body_Switches.html
- Sound operated switch - with a Piezo muscle
switch.:http://www.inclusive.co.uk/sound-operated-switch-p5307
- NeuroSwitch: http://neuroswitch.net/
- Brainfingers: http://brainfingers.com/ (But needs a PC/Mac)

Are there any that have a really reliable connection?! Are there any that
have a wireless connection?!

I feel I've missed something?! Any ideas much appreciated!
