Abstract
This paper discusses the design and application of a capacitive proximity device for use as an input-interface by children wi th disabilities. Such a device could be used to augmentiassist a handicapped child's abil ity so that he/she can function more independently. This type of device would be an addition to the other interface devices available and would allow a special education professional a wider choice of assist ive too ls in providing the best system for the child.
