ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and a method for aiding the transmission of intent enables a severely physically-handicapped person, who has lost muscular energy due to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), muscular dystrophy or the like, to transmit his/her intent through an electroencephalogram wave. A mechanical switch and an electroencephalogram wave switch are used in combination to allow the transmission of intent over the entire period of such a disease.
