Research Abstract |
We developed the input device for disabled persons, which has superior features including low-price, light weight, and easy to fit. The expiration and tooth-touch sound signals were used as input signals. These signals can be detected by a piezo-film sensor and a bone-conduction microphone, respectively. The novel methods for detecting these signals accurately were devised and implemented on a one-chip IC which includes several functions, such as signal detection and interface circuits to connect with the external devices. The evaluation of usability of our device was executed. The results showed that operation time of our device was twice longer than that of the conventional mouse, however it indicated that our device was very useful input device for disabled persons.
