• Integrates Apple's new Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Human Interface Device (HID) protocol
• Simplifies device setup, enhances real-time neural feedback, and automates Switch Control activation
• Strengthens Control Bionics' presence in global AAC markets, empowering users to communicate more easily

Control Bionics Limited, a global leader in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) technology, announced its implementation of Apple's new Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Human Interface Device (HID) protocol. This integration will transform how users can interact with Apple devices through neural and motion-based input, delivering faster setup, greater reliability, and more intuitive control for people living with severe speech and physical impairments. By integrating Apple's BCI HID protocol, Control Bionics will significantly simplify device setup, enhance real-time neural feedback, and enable automatic activation of Switch Control for its NeuroNode and NeuroNode Trilogy product lines. The BCI HID protocol streamlines iOS Switch Control setup, reducing common pain points and eliminating barriers for users and caregivers. It also allows visual signal feedback to appear natively within the iOS interface, helping users monitor and maintain a consistent wireless connection. Additionally, when a NeuroNode device connects or wakes, Switch Control now launches automatically, providing instant access to communication tools.With thousands of active users worldwide, an established HCPCS reimbursement code in the United States, and NDIS funding approval in Australia, Control Bionics is uniquely positioned to bring these enhanced BCI solutions to market immediately. The integration of Apple's BCI HID will strengthen CBL's presence across the US, Australian, and international AAC landscapes, empowering users to communicate and connect more easily than ever before.
