  • Using the Baby-Babble-Blanket for infants with motor problems: an empirical study

    Harriet J. Fell, Hariklia Delta, Regina Peterson, Linda J. Ferrier, Zebra Mooraj, Megan Valleau · 1994 · Proceedings of the First Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '94)

    This paper presents the Baby-Babble-Blanket (BBB), a patented assistive device designed for infants with severe motor problems who are at risk of developing learned helplessness due to their inability to control their environment or communicate. The BBB consists of a…

  • EEG as a means of communication: preliminary experiments in EEG analysis using neural networks

    Charles W. Anderson, Saikumar V. Devulapalli, Erik A. Stolz · 1994 · Proceedings of the First Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '94)

    This paper explores the use of electroencephalography (EEG) as a communication channel for paralyzed individuals, representing early brain-computer interface (BCI) research. The core premise is that if distinct mental states can be reliably identified through EEG pattern…

  • Validation of a keystroke-level model for a text entry system used by people with disabilities

    Heidi H. Koester, Simon P. Levine · 1994 · Proceedings of the First Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '94)

    This paper develops and validates a keystroke-level model (KLM) to predict how much word prediction software improves text generation rates compared to letter-by-letter typing for users with and without disabilities. The keystroke-level model, originally proposed by Card, Moran,…
