Abstract

People with disabilities generally do not have the same access to health care, education and employment opportunities. It is known that, very often, they do not receive the support they need, and end up experiencing the taste of exclusion to perform their daily activities. Analyzing the overall rates of people with disabilities, it is possible to perceive that social inclusion of minorities is not a simple task. One of these daily activities is the use of information technology. Considering the cost of commercial Assistive Technology devices are very expensive for developing countries like Brazil, we proposed a comparative evaluation between the low-cost wearable head-based device and the performance values obtained in Kurauchi et al. [8] work, to analyses the viability of this low-cost device. This Experimental results indicate that IOM presented a better accuracy than the two other devices, providing accurate mouse pointer positioning. Even though the speed of the low-cost IOM device was very similar than the devices analyzed and compared, the most significant result was the low-cost device accuracy was 100%, error rate was 0%.
一种用于运动障碍使用者的头部追踪指向装置的评估
残疾人一般无法获得同样的保健、教育和就业机会。众所周知,他们经常得不到所需的支持,最终在进行日常活动时体验到被排斥的感觉。分析残疾人的总体比率,可以看出少数民族的社会包容不是一项简单的任务。这些日常活动之一就是信息技术的使用。考虑到商业辅助技术设备的成本对于巴西等发展中国家来说非常昂贵,我们提出将低成本的可穿戴头戴式设备与Kurauchi等[8]工作中获得的性能值进行比较评估,以分析这种低成本设备的可行性。实验结果表明,IOM比其他两种装置具有更好的精度,可以提供准确的鼠标指针定位。尽管低成本IOM器件的速度与分析比较器件非常相似,但最显著的结果是低成本器件的精度为100%,错误率为0%。
