Abstract
Tongue control with low profile, passive mouth tags is demonstrated as a human–device interface by communicating values of tongue-tag
separation over a wireless link. Confusion matrices are provided to demonstrate user accuracy in targeting by tongue position. Accuracy is
found to increase dramatically after short training sequences with errors falling close to 1% in magnitude with zero missed targets. The
rate at which users are able to learn accurate targeting with high accuracy indicates that this is an intuitive device to operate. The
significance of the work is that innovative very unobtrusive, wireless tags can be used to provide intuitive human–computer interfaces
based on low cost and disposable mouth mounted technology. With the development of an appropriate reading system, control of assistive
devices such as computer mice or wheelchairs could be possible for tetraplegics and others who retain fine motor control capability of
their tongues. The tags contain no battery and are intended to fit directly on the hard palate, detecting tongue position in the mouth with
no need for tongue piercings.
