Abstract :
This paper proposes a prototype of an ambulatory device for differently-abled population with smart interaction through pervasive computing. The existing mobile device has been using a glowing screen perched on a desk using either Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Liquid Crystal displays (LCD) or Light Emitting Diode (LED) which is the only means of window to connect to the universe. A better solution proposed is that to connect with the universe using a (VRD) Virtual Retinal Display, a personal display technique called the Retinal scanning imaging system. The display technique draws a raster display onto the retina of the eye. The user visualizes what appears to be a conventional display floating in the space in front of them. When combined with the gaze detectors and voice recognition modules, it can function as an alternative to real time mobile phones i.e. the visual elements in the display could be controlled by means of eye movement and voice commands. It would also act as an additional advantage for the differently-abled with disabilities in their limbs. So these could be used as an alternative to the existing mobile controlled over voice and eye-movement for those with the above mentioned disabilities.
