The development of many tools and technologies for people with visual impairment has become a major priority in the field of assistive technology research.
The Blog I developed interest in assistive technology around nine years ago when, as a graduate assistant, I worked with students with disabilities atStudent Access & Accommodation Services, Illinois State University. I started this blog in late 2010, and the idea behind this blog was to educate...
With its ability to automate and personalize communication, generative artificial intelligence is the ideal technological fix for strengthening parent involvement in students’ education. As generative AI tools populate the education marketplace, the technology’s ability to automate complex, labor-intensive...
The aging population has caused assistive technology (AT) to receive attention. Thus, ensuring accurate user comprehension of AT has become increasingly crucial, and more specialized education for students in relevant fields is necessary. The goal of this study was to explore the learning outcomes in...
A recipe for an exciting assistive technology app: Throw three UIA samples together and stir vigorously! 發行項 2014/06/25 Hi,Last week I had an interesting discussion with someone who has experience in the Education space. She was telling me h...
this location, which bridges the gap between a “real” and entirely “simulated” home environment (laboratory), the UH Robot House which is available to University of Hertfordshire researchers but also other researchers as an environment to test and evaluate smart home and robotics technology [27...
If you have access to a speech and hearing clinic on your campus, or maybe interact regularly with a particular audiologist, pick their brains about ALD technology. Check in with local or national SHHH and ALDA groups. These are consumer organizations that are more than willing to help you ...
She was telling me how valuable it can be for some students to have a word that’s shown visually in a document spoken. So this got me thinking back to one of my old UI Automation (UIA) samples, which spoke text shown in an e-mail windo...
In this context, assistive technology might become the only solution. Starting from an international context, this paper aims to theoretically present the way technology can be used as a tool for the elderly's needs. Keywords: elderly; assistive technology; life expectancy; aging population; health...
This main controller gathers information about all the devices connected in the smart room and provides an open interface to visualize and control them, regardless of the technology they use. A Raspberry Pi (model 3B/4) was chosen to act as the main controller due to its good quality/price ...
