Customize function of single switch user interface for robot arm to help a daily life

Abstract

To support disabled people with less muscle strength like muscular dystrophy patients, we are developing simple robot arm systems. In this paper, we report the improvements of the inter-face part of the system. The user can change the buttons' position on the input panel only with the single switch. The user can let the buttons on the input panel scan with single click and can select a button with double click.
