The "I-to-AS" is an assistive control system to operate a powered wheelchair, an Augmentative and Alternative Communication devices and some other environment control devices, for seriously disability people such as who have cervical cord injury or ALS. This system consists of a mouthpiece-type remote controller that was operated by pressing switches for moving direction. But some users can't operate this mouthpiece-type remote controller by their tongue function. To increase the number of users, we develop a stick type mouthpiece remote controller.To investigate the maneuverability of the stick type mouthpiece remote controller, 8 able-bodied candidates drove a PWC on the prescribed course by using the stick type mouthpiece remote controller. The driving time of operated by tongue and by fingers were compared. The driving time by tongue was about 25% increasing against finger's condition. These results suggest the possibility that this system would be effective as an assistive tool for severely disabled people.}, pages = {1--6}, title = {重度障害者のためのスティック式口腔内コントローラーの開発}, volume = {17}, year = {2012} }
