2. Fig 1.1 : Improvement in accuracy of GLABENATOR with newer prototypes and approach. Prototypes of GLABENATOR from 2005-07 The invention relates to the field of communication solutions to physically challenged persons. More particularly, the invention relates to an alternative and augmentive communication device adaptable on the forehead of a communication disabled person. The Calibration makes available devices for example, brain-computer interface, eye-blink switch, and slip and puff device quite disadvantages. The Challenge : Calibration Sucks !

3. Weird as it sounds, the word, Glabenator, is derived from “glabella” , which refers to the smooth part of the forehead, lying just above and in between the eyebrows. F – FRONTALIS MUSCLE C – CORRUGATOR SUPERCILLI The Approach : Frontalis & Corrugator Meets Skin

4. Advanced Forehead Skin Deformation Coding System Analysis of directional displacement of a point in the skin, near the eyebrows, and a relationship between the contraction of corrugator supercilli and frontalis muscle. Mechanism : The displacement of the skin causes the rod to interrupt opto-interrupter respective to the direction of displacement. Thus using the data from POMAD displacement the contraction of corrugator supercilli and frontalis muscle is detected. The Solution : Direction is the Next Big Thing ! POMAD Normal Position due frontalis contraction Position due corrugator contraction

5. 108 Patients used the device for period of 2 months ranging diseases from ALS to Cerebral Palsy. Field Trial : It Works !
