There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Abstract: The objective of this proposed research is focused on the development and applications of a wireless tongue tracking system, referred as MagTrack. A small magnetic tracer is attached on the tongue and a localization algorithm estimates its position from its magnetic field recorded by an array of magnetometers. MagTrack has been used in speech applications to recognize speech solely from tongue motion, and assisting people with speech sound disorders to improve their intelligibility.
