Wireless Control of Powered Wheelchairs with Tongue Motion Using Tongue Drive Assistive Technology

D. Naga Bramhendra; K. Mallikarjuna

Tongue Drive system (TDS) is a tongue-operated unobtrusive wireless assistive technology, which can potentially provide people with severe disabilities with effective computer access and environment control. It translates users’ intentions into control commands by detecting and classifying their voluntary tongue motion utilizing a small permanent magnet, secured on the tongue, and an array of magnetic sensors mounted on a headset outside the mouth or an orthodontic brace inside.
