Abstract: Loss of communication due to long-term neurological conditions leads to isolation and loneliness. Individuals in these conditions raise the risk of depression, since they can’t convey their needs and wants and loose their social networks. This paper describes the development of a wireless platform for user-computer interface, targeted at mental health improvement through communica-tion and social inclusion. We describe the proposed approach in the context of an input device based on a single channel electromyographic signal, although the use of other biosignals is discussed to expand users’ possibilities. Users’ needs in terms of user interface implementation are considered, concerning severe speech and physical impairments.
