Abstract |
Morse Code is an efficient tool for communicating with the disabled people especially those with speech impairments and a variety of neuromuscular diseases like multiple sclerosis and muscular dystrophy. It is quite difficult to implement morse code with people having severe physical restriction as in the severe cases of Cerebral Palsy. This paper aims at designing of a device which can help such patients with their basic day to day communication. The proposed device can recognize even a slight movement of finger as the dots and dashes of Morse code, alerting patient’s caretaker about anything that needs his attention. |
