• Experiments with a semi-autonomous<br />

wheelchair controlled by means of a<br />

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI);<br />

• Assistive navigation system based on<br />

a collaborative controller;<br />

• User intents are decoded from<br />

electroencephalographic signals<br />

evoked by a visual P300-based<br />

paradigm;<br />

• Experiments carried out with <strong>10</strong> ablebodied<br />

participants and a cerebral<br />

palsy participant with motor disabilities<br />

showed the effectiveness of the<br />

proposed approaches.<br />
