Abstract

Nearly all the disabled persons are dissuaded from using personal computers due to their powerlessness to make use of a hand-controlled mouse. In this case, if directional discrimination of a mouse pointer can be achieved, these individuals would be gifted to take on the functions of a mouse without employing hands. .The aim of this proposed work is to introduce the mouse cursor control system using Electrooculogram (EOG) signals. We acquire the physiological signals due to eye movements that can be used as a pointer to show the directional discrimination and the signal is analyzed with LabVIEW data acquisition software.
