Home automation with eye-blink for paralyzed patients

Abstract

The constant demand to improve daily living standards for paralysis patients or general people serves as a motivation to develop newer technology. The tasks once performed by big traditional computers are now solved with smaller smart devices. The study here talks about the development of a blink sensor device which used for automated home designs for disable people. This sensor is able to detect an intentional blink from a normal blink, which is useful for the paralysis patients especially Tetraplegic patients to regulate their home devices at ease without any help. In addition, this device is also embedded with Bluetooth Module so that patient’s assistance can also get the notification and updates without detach it from patient body. This helps save a lot of electricity and can be installed into automated home devices easily.
