Several years back, I had the opportunity of using the Emotiv Epoc+ BMI with an individual who had suffered a traumatic brain injury. She had not spoken for 20 years and using this device she was able to answer Yes/No questions from family members and navigate a YouTube playlist. Sadly, she passed away shortly thereafter, but she had provided me with an experience that I still consider the peak of my career. I am interested in hearing the experience of others in this area.
