Biomedical engineers have been revolutionizing the industry of assistive technologies to govern the lives of many pain points related to physical trajectories, cognitive impairments, or disabilities. This research publication will provide a comprehensive analysis of how assistive technology and devices assist various patients with different diagnoses. Specifically, components and functionalities like AI, bioengineering medical tools, and artificial tools that assist people throughout their daily lives will be addressed throughout this research publication. This research publication will also dive into the specifics of electronically-powered wheelchairs, wireless networks, eye-tracking devices, and brain-computer interfaces to deduce how effective and optimal these technologies are. Additionally, this research publication will also explore the ethical limitations that have arisen from the study of assistive technologies, such as financial issues, accessibility, and lack of humanitarian interaction.
