Content Summary | A new input device for kinetically challenged persons has been
developed. This device is based on solid-state accelerometers to sense motion in
space, a microcontroller to sample the data in real time, and an embedded
FPGA to distinguish types of motion from programmable lists of motions. The
FPGA computational model for the first version, presented in this paper, is an
implementation of finite state machines (FSM) running in parallel, one for each
type of motion which is detected by the system. The design is modular,
allowing for different lists of motions and/or thresholds on input data to be
incorporated with reconfiguration of the FPGA. A personal computer is used to
determine the appropriate settings for each motion, which are then converted to
FSM. The architecture of the system, types of motions it detects, and its
performance characteristics are presented in this work. | en |
