ABSTRACT:
A person having one or more implanted or surface attached electrodes navigates a window environment. Signals from the electrodes are attached to input circuits in a control circuit which includes a sequential digital control circuit. The control circuit is coupled to a processor running window environment software and having a display. While observing the display, the person is able to activate signals by activating or relaxing a muscle or by mental processes such as thought, to thereby navigate the software environment.
