Human-Computer Interface Technologies for the Motor Impaired
Crc Press Inc (Verlag)
978-1-4822-6266-7 (ISBN)
Easily and readily understood by researchers, engineers, clinicians, and the common layperson, the book describes a number of HCI technologies ranging from simple modification of the computer mouse and joystick to a brain–computer interface (BCI) that uses the electrical recording of the brain activity of the user. The text includes photographs or illustrations for each device, as well as references at the end of each chapter for further study.
In addition, this book:
Describes the mechanical sensors that are used as an interface to control a computer or screen for the aged and disabled
Discusses the BCI using brain waves recorded by noninvasive electrodes to recognize the command from the user
Presents the myoelectric interface for controlling devices such as the prosthetic/robotic hand
Explains the technology of tracking the eye gaze using video
Provides the fundamentals of voice recognition technologies for computer and machine control applications
Examines a secure and voiceless method for the recognition of speech-based commands using video of lip movement
Human Computer Interface Technologies for the Motor Impaired
considers possible applications, discusses limitations, and presents the current research taking place in the field of HCI. Dedicated to enhancing the lives of people living with disabilities, this book aids professionals in biomedical, electronics, and computer engineering, and serves as a resource for anyone interested in the developing applications of HCI.
