The idea of an interface that allows controlling devices by placing it in the mouth has been on the agenda and researched for several years. Augmental Technologies was a company that completed this process and turned it into a final product.
The product is especially targeted at individuals who have problems controlling devices such as phones and computers with their hands as a result of paralysis and related disorders. The company has named this interface, which is almost completely invisible by being placed in the mouth, ‘Mouthpad’.
Connection is via bluetooth, control is by language
The mouthpad has a pressure sensitive surface and is placed on the palate. Navigation and clicking are performed with tongue movements that are tracked in real time.
Mouthpad, which does not need any software installation, provides connection to all devices with bluetooth connection as soon as it comes out of the box. Mouthpad, which is produced with special materials that are also used in dental health products and does not contain any risk, works in harmony with MacOS, iOS, Windows, Linux and Android operating systems. The device charges in 2 hours in the box and offers up to 5 hours of use.
