Analysis of different level of EOG signal from eye movement for wheelchair control

This paper is aimed to analyze different levels of eye movement signals strength using Electrooculography (EOG). The eye movement that is known to be a significant communication tool for a tetraplegia, can be defined as a paralysis that is caused by serious injuries or illness to a human that lea...
