Abstract :
The Eye Mouse is a communication aid designed for the severely disabled. Specifically, it provides the user with a means to control an ordinary PC mouse with a combination of eye movements and blinks. By constantly monitoring the electrooculogram signal (EOG) of the user, the Eye Mouse (EM) is able to recognize several intentional eye motions and in turn, control a cursor on the PC screen
