The monoselector: a new actuator for an environmental control system.
Within the Division of Medical Electrical Engineering of the Eindhoven University of Technology, a portable microprocessor-controlled actuator for an environmental control system has been developed. It allows severely physically disabled persons to remotely control up to 16 different electrical appliances using only a single switch. The actuator, the 'Monoselector', actuates the Busch Timac X-10 remote control system. The complete system is very easy to install, transportable, flexible, easy to use and has extensive control possibilities. Since its introduction at the Hannover Trade Fair in 1987 the Monoselector has been commercially available.
