Abstract
This paper describes a mobile robotic arm for people with severe disabilities. Its user interface using eye movements consists of a web camera, computer, and display unit. Using the robotic arm system, we performed two experiments: (1) transferring water from a bowl to the other and (2) eating soup experiments. It is found from the experimental results that the robotic arm system can transfer more than 82 % of water and soup to the respective positions.
