Implementation of Mouse Cursor Controlled by Eye Movement for Individuals with Disabilities

Abstract— People with physical disabilities and mental disabilities are an important part of our society who haven't had the same opportunities as other people to join the Information Society. To include computers in the new technologies, it is therefore necessary to develop systems that are simple to use. The goal of this project is to bring disabled people closer to new Technologies. “A novel algorithm for controlling the cursor's movement on a computer screen by moving the iris is presented in this project. The algorithm enables physically disabled individuals to control the movement of the computer cursor to the left, right, up, and down by precisely mapping the position of the iris in the eye to a specific position on the screen. The algorithm also gives the user the ability to click to open and close applications, files, or folders. A novel concept for using human eyes to control the movement of a computer mouse cursor is presented in this project. In this project, an explanation of how the product works and how it helps special people share their knowledge with the world has been provided. KEYWORDS: Web Cam, Image Processing, Eye, Matlab.
