Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. The patient satisfaction is measured using the experience of patient and doctors that participate in the sessions with questionnaires and feedback as well as validation of time for execution of movements, percentage of correct movements and the quality of experience control<br>2. The viability of project is measured by assessing the validity of movements using EEG and Facial expressions, use of stereo sound for orientation and commands of movememnts, if the Virtual Environment support the doctors for validiting the movements and the immersion of blind users with Sound 3D

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Sync between 3D interface, hardware and real movements with patients is assessed using the wheelchair adaopted integrated with Emotiv Epoch, trying to move the wheelchair with brainwaves (EEG), check if the movement is correct and examining the movements if they are oriented by sound and sync between Virtual Environment, Brainwaves and Wheelchair integration.
