Abstract

Effective human input devices for computer control are very important to quadriplegics and others with severe disabilities. This paper describes a framework for computer control without need for special PC software or drivers. The framework is based on a tongue control system recently developed at Center for Sensory-Motor Interaction (SMI), Aalborg University. The framework provides emulation of a standard USB keyboard and mouse, and allows tongue control of any computer using standard USB drivers available in all modern operating systems.
