Tongue Driven System a wireless Assistance Technology
Abstract
The "tongue drive system” is a tongue-operated assistive technology advanced for people with severe disability to manipulate their surroundings. The tongue is considered an amazing appendage in severely disabled people for working an assistive device. Tongue force consists of an array of hall-impact magnetic sensors to measure the magnetic discipline generated by way of a small permanent magnet secured at the tongue. [1] The sensor indicators are transmitted throughout a wi-fi link and processed to control the moves of a cursor on a computer display screen or to perform a powered wheelchair, a telephone, or different equipments. The foremost benefit of this technology is the possibility of capturing a big kind of tongue moves through processing a combination of sensor outputs. this would offer the person with a easy proportional manage rather than a switch primarily based on/off manipulate this is the premise of maximum existing technology.
