The assistive input devices with intel ACAT system for the severe disabled

The severe disabled have different states and course of disease, therefore, the input devices they used for the assistive system are not the same. In this study, according to the needs of the severe disabled, an assistive input device (AID) was designed and integrated with Intel Assistive Context-Aware Toolkit (ACAT) system for the severe disabled. Through the different input switches developed and AID by this research, the severely disabled can operate the Intel ACAT system steadily and quickly to communicate with others or complete the environmental control.
