Abstract :
In this paper, an EOG based assistive system for typing text using a virtual keyboard is presented. An indigenously developed acquisition system based on arduino interfaced ADS1299 with a wearable dry electrode mask is used to record and process EOG signals. An accuracy of 100% and an average speed of 1 char/12 sec was achieved by an untrained person in online implementation of this system. This can be further improvised by word prediction algorithms.
