An Inertial Human-Computer Interface for Cerebral Palsy: The ENLAZA Device

This paper proposes an inertial human-computer interface to promote the interaction of children with cerebral palsy and their environment through the computer. The main goal of the interface, called ENLAZA, is to reduce the effects of the involuntary movements of the users using an adaptive filter technique. The filtering technique is a robust Kalman interface, which can be adapted to varying physical performance levels. The solutions and methods proposed in this paper have been validated experimentally. A multidisciplinary team has participated during the different phases of the work.
