Nose-Controlled Electric Wheelchair

Israeli researchers have developed a device that converts nasal pressure into electrical signals, which could enable paralyzed people to type text and surf the Web. In this video, the researchers, led by Noam Sobel, a professor of neurobiology at the Weizmann Institute of Science, in Rehovot, demonstrate “sniff control” of an electric wheelchair.
