This paper proposes a new manipulation method for environment control systems using a shape sensor for the physically disabled. This system enables a human operator to control various home electric appliances, and can assist the physically disabled in their daily activities. The operation method can be easily changed according to operators ability. The operator can use not only haptic devices such as a keyboard, a mouse and a touchscreen, but also the bioelectric signals. In this paper, we propose a new manipulation method for environment control systems using a shape sensor that can measure a small curvature change. This paper shows the basic concept of the system design and the developed prototype system. The effectiveness of the developed system is verified through experiments by patients with a cervical spine injury.
