Abstract :
This paper illustrates the concept of passive tongue touch and tongue proximity wireless sensors. The sensors use the principle of changing the capacitive loading of the tag feed network by moving the tongue closer to the sensor. The application of these devices could be as control actuators for people with severe physical disability.
