Abstract : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease ) Several people over the past few decades are unfortunately succumbing to the dreaded Motor Neuron Disease , the cause of which is still uncertain. Patients suffering from the same, exhibit a slow degeneration of their central nervous system which in turn affects several of their abilities such as locomotion and also speech. This paper describes a simplified setup and also elaborates a novel methodology to convert a sequence of eye winks or blinks into meaningful sentences with home automation function using also assist such patients to communicate. The algorithm discussed is not only accurate but is also 2 times faster than its predecessor algorithms. All experiments were conducted using python 2.7.13 and open cv and the setup for home automation system.
