Abstract :
A new multi-switch input controller (MSIC) has been developed, which is developed from scanning techniques extended by encoding. It controls the indoor home-electronic devices, personal emergency alarm system, and the keyboard emulator on the Windows95 (Microsoft). This intensive indoor environmental control system basically has the main framework to handle the historic records of the switch control. It is useful to monitor the training process for the disabled
