Abstract:

ABSTRACT Existing studies show that occupants’ behavior contribute to fluctuations in energy consumption of residential units within the same building configuration. Window blinds are one of the interior design elements that the occupants use to control indoor environmental conditions. The way that occupants adjust their blinds could affect the energy performance of buildings. Thus, the purpose of this research was to identify spatial and temporal explanatory variables that correlate with occupants’ use of the blinds and determine whether those variables relate to building design and surroundi

Four adventitiously blind subjects and four sighted subjects with vision occluded examined a tangible letter J, presented at various orientations, and stated whether the stimulus was in normal or mirror-reversed form. Although the pattern of response-latency measurements suggested a higher rate of rotation of mental images in the sighted subjects, it indicated a greater degree of intersession variability in the orientation of the frame of reference they used. When the effect of this variability was eliminated from the data, the mental rotation functions for the two groups of subjects were virt

Abstract:

Spatial orientation skills are crucial for the comfortable everyday functioning of blind individuals and affect their physical and mental well-being. Developing spatial orientation is usually carried out through traditional training courses without the support of electronic tools. Training them in a natural city environment, even under the supervision of an instructor, is often a very stressful process for the student. This paper proposes a solution for a simplified city space simulator created as a game using 3-dimensional binaural sounds. This simulator can be used at home to develop basic s

The paper deals with problems of independent movement and orientation of blind persons in public space. It adverts to the importance of understanding the public space in context with needs of the blind for orientation elements, points, lines and signs. The paper follows these sets of elements in public space more closely. The objective of this paper is to get a comprehensive insight into the problems and the definition of elementary orientation elements for provision of independent movement of blind persons in public space that are reflected subsequently in technical regulations.

Abstract:

Based on the analysis of existing systems for helping blind people to navigate in space, an understanding arose in the creation of a new system that would have a completely different approach to the interaction of a blind user with the existing world. Such a system, having the function of a voice message, provides a blind person with information and thus helps him orientate in space. Existing approaches focus on providing sound signals, which only make it possible to redirect a person in a certain direction, prohibit or allow movement. Therefore, there was a need to develop such a mobile syste

Therefore, pheromones are always assumed to be deposited at the desired place. However, it is difficult to achieve perfect localization of the robot due to errors in encoders and sensors attached to the robot and the dynamics of the environment in which the robot operates.

Slower rates of presentation with upright number sequences improved recall in both sighted and blind observers.

The constant development of modern technologies allows the creation of new and, above all, mobile devices supporting people with disabilities. All work carried out to improve the lives of people with disabilities is an important element of the field of science. The work presents matters related to the anatomy and physiology of hearing, imaginative abilities of blind people and devices supporting these people. The authors elaborated a prototype of an electronic device that supports the orientation of blind people in the environment by means of sound signals. Sounds are denoted to present to a b

This study aims to (1) find out and describe the implementation of character independence education for children with visual impairments in the Ponorogo Regency Aisyiah Integrated Blind Home, (2) to create a pattern of character education of children with special needs visually impaired in the Ponorogo Regency Aisyiah Integrated Blind Home. This study uses a qualitative method with a groundet theory approach. The research was carried out at the Aisyiyah Ponorogo Integrated Blind Orphanage with informants, namely the head of the orphanage, the board of education and blind children. Procedure fo

Abstract:

Spatial orientation and navigation depend primarily on vision. Blind people lack this critical source of information. To facilitate wayfinding and to increase the feeling of safety for these people, the “feelSpace belt” was developed. The belt signals magnetic north as a fixed reference frame via vibrotactile stimulation. This study investigates the effect of the belt on typical orientation and navigation tasks and evaluates the emotional impact. Eleven blind subjects wore the belt daily for seven weeks. Before, during and after the study period, they filled in questionnaires to document their

Abstract:

The blind mole rat Spalax ehrenbergi is a solitary, subterranean rodent that digs and inhabits a system of branching tunnels, with no above-ground exits, which it never leaves unless forced to. To survive, the mole rat must be able to orient efficiently in its tunnel system. The sensory channels available for spatial orientation in the subterranean environment are restricted in comparison with those existing above ground. This study examined the possibility that the mole rat is able to perceive and use the earth's magnetic field to orient in space. Experiments were performed using a device con

Abstract:

Abstract- Visually impaired is a general term to describe the condition of a person experiencing disability totheir sense of sight. Due to the disability, the process of orientation and mobility of the people with visuallyimpairment is inhibited. Therefore they try to increase their sensitivity of other senses like sense of touch, senseof smell, and sense of hearing to obtain information from the surrounding physical environment. PSBN WyataGuna is a residential for the visually impaired, as the physical environment it must have physical elements thatcan provide information which affect effecti
