Abstract:

The Rehabilitation Services Administration has identified deaf-blind persons as composing a priority population. The authors indicate the service delivery adaptations that professionals should consider when serving a deaf-blind client. The traditional vocational rehabilitation process is utilized as the service delivery model. Modifications of historical methods are suggested.

Abstract:

Virtual pheromone trailing has successfully been demonstrated for navigation of multiple robots to achieve a collective goal. Many previous works use a pheromone deposition scheme that assumes perfect localization of the robot, in which, robots precisely know their location in the map. 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. In real-world scenarios, there is alway

Abstract:

Slip blinds are frequently used for hydrotesting piping. In addition, when maintaining equipment or piping, the equipment or piping must be isolated to ensure a safe working environment. Separating flange pairs and inserting a blind flange against the process side prevents hazardous substances from entering the work area. Slip blinds are often used for this type of service. However, slip blinds are generally limited to low-pressure service since at excessive pressures the blind will become dished and may leak or become impossible to remove. For this paper, slip blinds of various sizes and thic

Abstract:

Independent living services are thought to be an effective and efficient way to maintain older blind and visually impaired persons in their home environment for a longer period of time. Few studies, though, have analyzed the level of consumer satisfaction among these elders. This study asserts that an enriched understanding of customer satisfaction and the resulting service delivery recommendations will assist states in developing more effective independent living programs. The Kentucky Department for the Blind has been offering these services to blind and visually impaired elders since 1980.

Abstract:

In areas where large-scale, public vision screening is nonexistent or limited, the private agency for blind people should consider providing one or more vision screening services. The Sight Center became involved in such a program in 1966, and for 20 years has found it to be quite cost-effective while providing a valuable service throughout the service territory. Our experience demonstrates that a sight conservation program creates a large reservoir of goodwill in the community by involving volunteers, identifying individuals with potential vision problems and, in many cases, helping prevent t

Although fax communications pose a problem of accessibility for blind and visually impaired office workers, with centralized readers’ services they could be used to address the wider reading needs of blind and visually impaired people. With this technology, blind persons with fax machines could send unknown print to readers at a centralized readers’ service, who would read facsimiles of the documents over voice phones.

It also allows for close coordination among the personnel of local school districts, the staff of the residential school, and parents.

Abstract:

Abstract Location-based services have attracted much attention in both academia and industry. However, protecting user’s privacy while providing accurate service for users remains challenging. In most of the existing research works, a semi-trusted proxy is employed to act on behalf of a user to minimize the computation and communication costs of the user. However, user privacy, e.g. location privacy, cannot be protected against the proxy. In this paper, we design a new blind filter protocol where a user can employ a semi-trusted proxy to determine whether a point of interest is within a circul

To develop a voice primarily based email system that will facilitate visually impaired individuals to access email in a problem free manner. Together with providing usage of mail services simply and with efficiency, the system also will cut back the psychological feature work that must be unremarkably taken by the visually impaired to recollect and sort characters using the normal Braille keyboards, which are accessible to them. The graphical user interface of this method has been evaluated against the interface of the traditionally accessible mail system. Not only for visually impaired, but a

Abstract:

Quality education and rehabilitation programs for blind and visually impaired individuals may be threatened by the philosophy of service to disabled people currently prevailing at the federal level. This philosophy would treat blind and visually impaired persons as though their needs were the same as those of other handicapped persons. In fact, sometimes the needs coincide; sometimes they do not. Proper service delivery can be ensured only by understanding this philosophy, becoming aware of its subtle and overt impact on programs for people with visual impairments, and acting in concert with o

Since 2017, the publisher Springer Nature has provided an optional Research Data Support service to help researchers deposit and curate data that support their peer-reviewed publications. This service builds on a Research Data Helpdesk, which since 2016 has provided support to authors and editors who need advice on the options available for sharing their research data. In this paper, we describe a short project which aimed to facilitate an objective assessment of metadata quality, undertaken during the development of a third-party curation service for researchers (Research Data Support).
