Abstract
El objetivo de este Trabajo de Fin de Grado es la creación de un software para la comunicación de personas con discapacidad exclusivamente motriz, incluyendo el habla, pero sin tener afectada la cognición; concretamente va dirigido a un niño que padece una parálisis cerebral. Dicho software se ha desarrollado en dos programas separados. El primero es un software de seguimiento de pupila basado en la tecnología de EyeTracking, para lo que se usa un ratón de mirada proporcionado por un programa ya existente. La aportación en este apartado ha sido crear una interfaz, como capa superior, mediante botones que ejecutan las acciones correspondientes a seleccionar el método de comunicación y las opciones correspondientes a cada método que ofrece el sistema. Nuestro niño, Moisés, sufre disponía, lo que implica fluctuación ene el tono muscular, unas veces hipertónico y otras hipotónico en distintas partes de su cuerpo, afectándole a la sujeción de la cabeza. Por ese motivo se ha desarrollado un segundo programa que funciona con ratón y teclado, al cual se le ha añadido un pulsador. Incluye un menú para seleccionar distintas formas de comunicación. Las opciones de este menú se le ofrecen al usuario de forma secuencial ya que solo podrá comunicarse con el sistemas mediante clicks de ratón o pulsaciones de teclado. En España la empresa Vía Libre de la fundación ONCE vende materiales ortopédicos y de comunicación, todos con licencia de uso, como el usado por Stephen Hawking, no asequibles a familias que ya tienen gastos en sillas, adaptadores, y material ortopédico. Este segundo programa ha sido probado y modificado según las principales necesidades de comunicación de Moisés, es de código abierto y puede ser descargable desde https://sourceforge.net/p/clickspeak/
The objective of this Grade Project is the creation of communication software for exclusively motor disabled people, included speach, without affected cognition: Specifically directed for a cerebral palsy affected child, said software has been developed in two separated programs. The first one is a Eye Tracking system based on EyeTracking tecnology, which uses an eyetracking mouse provided by an already existing program. The aportation in this section is the implementation of an interface as a superior layer, through buttons that will execute the corresponding orders, selecting the communication chanel and the subsequent options following each chanel offered by the system. The subject child, Moisés, suffers of disponia, wich implies fluctuating muscle tone, hipertonic or hipotonic in different parts of his body alternating, affecting head stability. Because of that has been created a second, mouse and keyboard functioning program, with an added pulsator. It includes a selecting menu, for the different comunication means. The options in this menu are offered to the user secuentially, given the limit of communication by clicks or key pressing. In Spain, ONCE's Vía Libre enterprise sells ortopedic and communication articles, all licensed, like the one used by Stephen Hawking. Theese are not affordable for families that are already spending on chairs and othopedic material. This second program has already been tested and modified according to the main comunication needs of the subject, Moisés, is free code, and is avaliable for download from https://sourceforge.net/p/clickspeak/
