مستخلص: For individuals having a motor disorder of neuromuscular origin, computer usage can be challenging. Due to different medical conditions, alternative input methodologies such as speech or eye tracking are no option. Here, piezo sensors, inertial measurement units and force resistance sensors are used to develop input devices that can compensate for mouse and keyboard. The devices are tested in a case study with one potential user with ataxia. Future user studies will deliver additional insights in the users' specific needs and further improve the developments.
