Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to the loss of motor function, including speech and movement, significantly affecting communication and independence. 

As the disease progresses, conventional assistive methods become limited, highlighting the need for alternative approaches. Device-based neurotechnology, such as brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and robotics, offers promising solutions by restoring communication and supporting functional movement, ultimately improving quality of life for individuals with ALS.
