Abstract

This research focuses on people who have an issue to move their bodies or do not have enough force to move it, with the purpose to help in their control their moves to reach objects in their quotidian live with a fast process, in this sense, it has been conducted different interviews with persons that have coordination problem in their bodies or could have them. Therefore, in this work, it is proposed an algorithm to create a touch control for people that can use to manipulate a robotic arm with only one finger, faster with less effort. The Algorithm is based on two discrete functions that are characterized by depending on the problem that is going to work and get the most efficient result. These results were tested in Arduino and LCD-touch with a digital and discrete treatment to finding the shortest and effective way of acting.
