Abstract
In this case study, we report what we believe to be the
first prolonged in-situ use of a brain-body interface for
rehabilitation of individuals with severe neurological
impairment due to traumatic brain injury with no
development researchers present. We attribute this
success to the development of an adaptive cursor
acceleration algorithm based on screen tiling, which we
combined with an adaptable user interface to achieve
inclusive design through personalisation for each
individual. A successful evaluation of this approach
encouraged us to leave our Brain-Body Interface in the
care settings of our evaluation participants with
traumatic brain injury, where it was used with support
from health care professionals and other members of
participants’ care circles.
