Can she move her eyes? Hybrid BCI (EEG + eye/EMG etc) rather than pure EEG based BCI can be a faster and less taxing solution for her

Yes, she can, as well as make a “normal” range of facial gestures. She can still speak, but her voice keeps getting weaker, and mass-market solutions like Alexa don’t work very well for her.

Thanks for the idea!
