Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, causes the loss of motor skills, making it hard for people to communicate with their friends and family.
Recently, technology has been created that has the ability to track brain waves and correspond them with specific actions. Using one of these projects, the Emotiv, our application will allow ALS patients to communicate through social media by just using their mind.
