Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis & Other Neuromuscular Disorders

The investigators will develop and evaluate controllers for a powered neck exoskeleton in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to understand how to allow adequate personalization and function and achieves satisfaction from users. In this small device feasibility study, participants will be enrolled from the ALS clinic at the University of Utah Hospital. After obtaining written consent, participants will perform tasks while using the neck exoskeleton with the controllers. Tasks include computerized tracking tasks and simulated activities of daily living. Breaks will be added between tasks to avoid fatigue. Head-neck kinematics, gaze data, controller preferences, and survey responses will be recorded.
