Tongue Drive System (TDS) is a wireless tongue-operated assistive technology (AT), developed for people with severe physical impediments to control their environments using their tongue motion. We have developed a new intraoral TDS (iTDS) in a form of a dental retainer, which can tightly clasp onto the upper teeth, completely hidden inside the mouth, using commercial off-the-shelf components (COTS). The iTDS retainer was tested by two healthy subjects and their performance was compared with that of an external TDS (eTDS) implemented in the form of a headset. The iTDS retainer showed comparable performance with the eTDS headset. The iTDS is expected to improve the stability and robustness of the TDS, while giving users a certain degree of privacy.
舌驱动系统（TDS）是一种无线舌控辅助技术（AT），专为有严重身体障碍的人群开发，使其能够通过舌头运动来控制周围环境。我们以牙齿固定器的形式开发了一种新型口腔内舌驱动系统（iTDS），它可以使用商用现货组件（COTS）紧紧扣在上牙上，完全隐藏在口腔内部。两名健康受试者对iTDS固定器进行了测试，并将其性能与头戴式外部舌驱动系统（eTDS）的性能进行了比较。iTDS固定器表现出与eTDS头戴式设备相当的性能。预计iTDS将提高舌驱动系统的稳定性和鲁棒性，同时为用户提供一定程度的隐私保护。
