Connect-One: Early Feasibility Study of Connexus® Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) to Provide Human Connection Through Communication
The Connect-One Study is an early feasibility study to obtain preliminary device safety information for the Connexus Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). The Connexus BCI is intended to be used as: (1) an assistive communication device to decode imagined language correlates and speech for patients with impaired communication as a result of severe loss of voluntary motor control; and (2) to provide control of computer devices for individuals with severe loss of voluntary motor control of the upper extremity.

• Has a reliable method of communication and the ability to read and understand the English language.
• Has a study care partner (e.g. caregiver or multiple caregivers) for the duration of the study.
