Design, simulation and evaluation of two coding programming languages for an eye-tracking controlling system for a three degrees of freedom robot useful for paralyzed people

In this study, the use of an eye tracking system is tested and discussed by using the tracked gaze point as a means to control a device. In this project, a two-dimensional simulated robot for paralyzed people was used to move the arm in the plane where the wrist is in a plane parallel to the frontal...

description In this study, the use of an eye tracking system is tested and discussed by using the tracked gaze point as a means to control a device. In this project, a two-dimensional simulated robot for paralyzed people was used to move the arm in the plane where the wrist is in a plane parallel to the frontal plane of the eye. Both MATLAB and Python programs are proposed for programming the eye tracking system (ET) and their results are compared. Moreover, the tests show how can this system works with robot and sampling rate which is important in robotic system is better than previous studies. At the end of the study, after mathematical modeling, a simulation of the three joint movements of the robotic arm was performed. This robot is designed in a way to move the arm of the paralyzed people. Several tests were performed and a multi-body simulation was connected to the eye tracker to verify the resulting interaction concept.
