Abstract

A multi-component cooperating system have been designed for severely disabled children having various disabilities. Different input tools have been developed to exploit possible ‘outputs’, e.g., head motion or leg motion. Specific software tools serve to convert such ‘outputs’ in different computer aided tasks. Extendable software enables configurable networking. Robotic personal agent helps the communication.
