ParaCom: An IoT based Affordable Solution Enabling People with Limited Mobility to Interact with Machines

There are many people in this world who don’t have the ability to communicate with others due to some unforeseen accident. Users who are paralyzed and/or suffering from different Motor Neuron Diseases (MND) like Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Primary Lateral Sclerosis etc, by making them more independent. Patients suffering from these diseases are not able to move their arms and legs, lose their body balance and the ability to speak. Here we propose an IoT based communication controller using the concept of Morse Code Technology which controls the smartphone of the user. This paper proposes a solution to give the user ability to communicate to other people using machine as an intermediator. The device will require minimal inputs from the user.
