Brain--Computer Interfaces for Augmentative and Alternative Communication: Separating the Reality From the Hype.

Brain--computer interfaces (BCIs) are topics of great interest to people who need augmentative and alternative communication. Although media reports focus on the promise of BCI to provide communication without physical movement, such reports often contain few details to critically evaluate whether B...

      ab: Brain--computer interfaces (BCIs) are topics of great interest to people who need augmentative and alternative communication. Although media reports focus on the promise of BCI to provide communication without physical movement, such reports often contain few details to critically evaluate whether BCIs are yet sufficiently developed for real-world communication. This article provides an introduction to the breadth of BCIs designed for communication. We examine the reasons for misconceptions about BCIs and discuss the functions BCIs can currently provide. Finally, we summarize important factors to consider when evaluating BCI as a communication element for individuals with complex communication needs.
