Abstract :
To support disabled people with less muscle strength like muscular dystrophy patients, we are developing simple robot arm systems. In this paper, we report the improvements of the inter-face part of the system. The user can change the buttons´ position on the input panel only with the single switch. The user can let the buttons on the input panel scan with single click and can select a button with double click.
