Diagram depicting control of a wheelchair by the sniffing system. The planned route is marked in green. The black line marks the trajectory of ten healthy volunteers. The red line indicates the route taken by a patient paralyzed from the neck down. The top picture shows the results of the first activation attempt, and the bottom the results obtained in the third attempt.
