Abstract

Motor neuron diseases, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), pose challenges to individuals' motor abilities, limiting computer interactions. This research addresses this by utilizing eye gaze technology in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Tracking eye movements empowers users to control computers effectively, restoring engagement with digital resources. Motor neuron diseases create barriers to computer interaction, hindering access to essential digital functionalities. Our proposal advocates for integrating eye gaze technology into HCI to reestablish computer interaction for users with motor neuron diseases, fostering independence and enhancing overall quality of life. Introducing ELITA, an HCI system designed for physically challenged individuals, employing eye movement tracking for effortless computer tasks. ELITA includes a visual keyboard operated through eye gaze technology, enhancing accessibility. This research serves as a beacon of hope, bridging the digital divide for those with motor neuron diseases. Through the proposed eye-based computer interaction system, ELITA, we strive to empower users and contribute to a more inclusive technological landscape.
