A research version could investigate scalp EEG alongside eye tracking, accessible switches, surface EMG and motion sensors. EEG measures electrical activity at the scalp; EMG measures muscle activity. They provide different kinds of information.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Neural interface:<\/strong> investigate whether reliably distinguishable signals can support simple, intentional commands. Electrode placement, hair, skin contact, motion artefacts and individual calibration would determine feasibility.<\/li><li><strong>Multiple ways to choose:<\/strong> if EEG is unreliable or unsuitable, an eye-gaze selection, switch or caregiver-assisted command could be a better access method.<\/li><li><strong>A slim shape is not a validated sensor:<\/strong> the luminous forehead element is a visual identity. It does not establish that the required brain signals can be captured from that location.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"luma-source\">Research context: a preliminary study tested EEG-based exoskeleton commands in five adults with spinal cord injury during crutch-assisted walking.

Free-standing balance cannot be assumed from powered legs.<\/li><li><strong>Fit and comfort:<\/strong> the design must accommodate growth, skin pressure, range of motion, fatigue, swallowing or breathing considerations, and each person\u2019s clinical needs.
