About

Rasmus Leck Kæseler is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of assistive robotics and neural interface technology, dedicated to restoring independence for individuals with severe motor impairments. His work focuses on developing adaptive, hybrid control systems that bridge the gap between progressive paralysis and functional autonomy. Kæseler’s key contributions include optimizing steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) classifiers for brain-computer interfacing, achieving high performance with minimal computational cost—a critical step toward practical, real-world BCI applications. He also introduced a novel tongue-brain hybrid robot interface designed specifically for individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), allowing users to seamlessly transition between control modalities as their paralysis progresses. Most recently, Kæseler demonstrated remote tongue-based control of a wheelchair-mounted assistive robotic manipulator, incorporating adaptive semi-automation to enhance usability in personal and remote spaces. With over 15 citations across his most influential works, his research is shaping the future of accessible assistive technology. Kæseler’s work stands out for its pragmatic focus on real-world deployment, ensuring that cutting-edge neural interfaces translate directly into improved quality of life for those with tetraplegia and progressive neuromuscular diseases.
