This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) provides $585,000 to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska to redesign brain-computer interfaces for children with physical disabilities to improve their communication abilities. The research aims to develop new brain-computer interface tools that use real-life images instead of grids, making them easier for children to understand and use. Key activities include studying how brain signals differ between grid-based and image-based interfaces, assessing the impact of visual cues, and gathering feedback from children on preferred designs. This work is expected to enhance children's quality of life by improving their communication capabilities and increase student understanding of emerging assistive technologies.
