In the framework of the European project TOBI, we have developed a variety of BMI prototypes that have been extensively tested by motor-impaired users with after a short training period. a substantial number of tests have been carried out at end users’ home and clinics, outside well controlled laboratory conditions. Equally significantly, non-BMI experts (assistive technology professionals and therapists) have run many of these tests independently or with a minimum of remote assistance from researchers.
In this talk I will summarize this work and the main lessons learned from this major effort, highlighting new principles incorporated in the brain-controlled devices.
