Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) It is difficult that persons with motor disabilities control their body, by various factors, such as cerebral paralysis, nervous affection or limb deficiencies. A switch is employed by a person with severe motor disabilities, in order to operate computers. He/she operates the switch by using his/her residual functions. However, only with one switch, it is difficult to detect various voluntary body movements. Also the positioning between the switch and his/her body is difficult. To solve the problems, we developed new switch that employed 3-axis geomagnetic sensor. The sensor is small and light. The sensor’s sensitivity is high. The advantages of our switch are the high sensitivity to detect various voluntary body movements, and the easy positioning between the switch and his/her body. This paper described the summary of our switch and evaluated the detection accuracy of our switch.
