Access to non-verbal cues in social interactions is vital for people with visual impairment. It has been shown that non-verbal cues such as eye contact, number of people, their names and positions are helpful for individuals who are blind. In this paper, we present a real time multi-modal...
Project AVARE: Audio-Augmented virtual and real environments is a project with a goal of empowering VIPs to experience rich multi-modal interactions in everyday activities ranging from work and social interactions to entertainment and exploration. ...
Assistive technology may be needed; levels of assistance can range from low to high. Independence is threatened as age increases. Assistive technology is used to cope with daily living. Successful aging is the result of several interactions. Early prevention can improve balance and reduce falls. ...
Social demand for exoskeleton robots that physically assist humans has been increasing in various situations due to the demographic trends of aging populations. With exoskeleton robots, an assistive strategy is a key ingredient. Since interactions between users and exoskeleton robots are bidirectional, the...
