experiment on a novel user input for computer interface utilizing tongue input for severely disabled
This paper introduces a novel passive tongue control and tracking device, which require no electrical object to be inserted to user's mouth. The device is intended to be used by the severely disabled or quadriplegic person. The device is able perform two main applications, the keyboard and mouse application. The results show that this device allow the severely disabled person to have some control in his environment, such as to turn on and control daily electrical appliances or to control the wheel chair movement. The LabVIEW programming is used for the software of this device. The system is still in the development and working prototype phase to determine the accuracy and viability of such a setup.
