Indications associated with speech disorders MindSpeaker is currently placing a high priority on addressing medical conditions that significantly affect a patient's ability to speak, particularly those caused by paralysis. Our focus is on developing solutions to enhance communication for individuals facing challenges in verbal expression due to paralysis-related issues.
