Hello, apparelyzed community. I'm a developer of the Tilvus Assistive Interface, which is single switch computer software for Microsoft Windows. It enables people with severe physical disabilities to use a PC with only a single switch, such as a button, a pedal, or a sip-piff device. We just posted a video demonstrating control of our software using only a brain-computer interface (BCI). It demonstrates text entry and computer control. Here is the link to the youtube video.
Our website has more information and other videos that show more features and capabilities of the software.
We hope that this software (and the capability to use it with a BCI) may be useful to some of you, or to people you know, and we are very interested in hearing your feedback. We are planning to have a version (1.0) ready for release by the end of August.

Hi guys,
My name is Carolyn Kane. I live in Perth Western Australia with my husband Martin and two teenage children. Three years ago my husband suddenly (within 4 hours) became a quadriplegic. He was diagnosed with NMO (Devic's Syndrome). He lives at home now after spending a year in hospital. Martin is on a ventilator and has no speech. Martin could definitely benefit from the BCI technology. I wont write any more until you reply as your post is 6 months old and Ive only just come across it.
