lolEpop: A Multisensory Electronic Lollipop for Enhanced Tongue Training and Behavior Analysis

This study introduces a multi-modal smart tongue exercise system, designed to enhance the engagement and effectiveness of tongue movement training by integrating sensory stimulation with advanced sensor technologies. The system employs food materials for taste and olfactory stimulation, alongside bone conduction technology to augment tactile and auditory experiences. It incorporates flexible pressure sensors and inertial measurement units for real-time monitoring of tongue force and movements. This integration of comprehensive sensory stimuli and intelligent monitoring not only increases user participation but also allows for the personalized adaptation of training programs, optimizing therapeutic outcomes. The application of this system shows promising potential in improving oral health and managing related disorders.
