Problem Statement
Dyspraxia goes by many names: developmental coordination disorder, motor learning difficulty, motor planning difficulty and apraxia of speech. It can affect the development of gross motor skills like walking or jumping. It can also affect fine motor skills.
Lack of mobility could be due to: Chronic non-progressive neurological conditions: cerebral palsy. Progressive neurological conditions Diseases of the circulatory system: heart disease, stroke. Cancers, lymphomas and leukaemias. Obesity due to diabetes. Severe respiratory disorders. Injury or other external causes General ageing process. Point 2: muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other motor neuron diseases. Point 2nd last: spinal injury, head injury, acquired brain injury, other accidents causing prolonged bed/chair confinement.
Issues with Currently available technology
Traditional wheelchairs cannot satisfy everyone’s need Inconvenient for senior users Impossible for some people with disability to use In some cases assistance is required to operate the wheelchair
Home care services are expensive Cost for high-tech wheelchair is unaffordable for the average household 10,000 pounds + for hawking’s wheelchair
Our Solution Electroencephalography EEG, is the physiological method recording electrical activity generated by the brain via electrodes placed on the scalp surface. measures electrical activity generated by the synchronized activity of thousands of neurons (in voltage) provides excellent time resolution, allowing you to analyze which brain areas are active at a certain time – even at sub-second timescales
