SUMMARY In recent years, welfare equipment has been developed to support disabled children. We are developing a joystick mouse to enable computer operation by disabled children. In this study, we develop such a joystick mouse using a microcontroller. In addition we intend to improve the operability of the equipment by ensuring software‐like assistance. We believe that the equipment can respond flexibly to differences in disabilities among disabled children by providing software‐like assistance. The result of experiments confirm that the proposed method is effective in improving operability.
