Abstract :
This study aims to propose electrooculogram signal processing method for voluntary eye blink detection and apply it to wheelchair control system. In this study, we defined double blink and wink as a voluntary eye blink, and normal blink as an involuntary blink. The proposed method can detect voluntary eye blinks in distinction from involuntary eye blinks with 98.28 percent accuracy. Additionally, we showed the effectiveness of wheelchair control system.
