People with upper limb disabilities being unable to interact with a computer using a generic mouse are deprived of the benefits of modern technology, a quality life, and stable socio-economic status. To address this problem, Mohammad Ridwan Kabir (CSE ‘13, Lecturer - Department of CSE) along with his teammates Mohammad Ishrak Abedin (CSE ’16, Lecturer – Department of CSE), Rizvi Ahmed (CSE ‘ 16), and Saad Bin Ashraf (CSE ’16) have developed “AUXILIO: A Head-Mounted Mouse For People With Upper Limb Disabilities”, which facilitates cursor movement and mouse clicks using head rotations and cheek muscle twitches, respectively, allowing interaction with a computer for such people.
They participated in the APICTA Awards 2020-21, otherwise known as the Oscar Awards of ICT in the Asia Pacific region, in the “Research and Development” category. After a rigorous competition, they have become the CHAMPIONS in this category, representing Bangladesh and IUT on an International Platform like APICTA.
This project is funded by IUT-RSG, Grant No.: REASP/IUT-RSG/2021/OL/07/012. Prof. Dr. Abu Raihan Mostofa Kamal (Head, Department of CSE), Prof. Dr. Kamrul Hasan (Head, ICT Center, Grant Recipient), and Dr. Hasan Mahmud (Assistant Professor, Department of CSE) were actively involved throughout the development of this project.
