Abstract
A new infrared-controlled keyboard instead of the conventional computer keyboard was developed for those with hand dysfunction. The infrared transmitter with laser director was placed on the eyeglasses, and the keys of the conventional computer keyboard were all replaced by infrared receivers. In the infrared receivers we designed a modulized circuit to receive, demodulate and process the infrared signals. The modulized circuit used signal processing technique to convert the astable signal of the infrared receiver to a standard pulse train which could be used as control signal easily.
