Novel Design of Artificial Eye Using EOG (Electrooculography)

In this paper, we present the system that controls the artificial eye based on EOG. The makes use of artificial eye model, consists of the mask and the eye mechanism for natural movement like the movement of the real eye. To move up, down, left, and right of the artificial eye, one servomotor is mounted above the eye of the artificial eye model and one below the eye. The link connected to the motor movement and moves up, down, left, and right. The movement of the artificial eye must move in synchronize with the real human eye. Therefore, in order to control such movement, a signal of real human eye motion is measured by EOG (Electrooculography). Signals of up, down, left, and right movement required for eyeball movement are processed using the signal of EOG. Therefore, measure the vertical and horizontal signals separately and check the maximum and minimum signals when moving up, down, left, and right.
