Abstract

Tongue Drive System(TDS) is the assistive technology plays very important role in the life of people who are suffered from spinal cord injuries those are unable to do their own tasks or for those who have central nervous system disorders. Assistive technologies help them to leave their life without help of others. These papers provide the more brief report about the various assistive technologies which has been developed for disabled people. The tongue is considered as an excellent limb for handle the devices. The magnetic read relay mounted on outside of teeth to sense the message, which small magnet generated. These sensors signals are transmitted across wireless medium and processed to operate the wheelchair. The main Moto behind this technology is the possibility of capturing large number of moments. This paper gives advanced technology to operate the computer functions with the help of tongue and using small magnet sensors to make the people employable and independent.
