Enhancing Independent Task Performance for Individuals with Mental Retardation Through Use of a Handheld Self-Directed Visual and Audio Prompting System

ppt.

Method

• Study participants
• 10 volunteers with mental retardation
  
• Device design
• procedure
• Pizza box assembly
• software packing
• verbal overview & demonstration
• asked to complete the task two times
• w/ Visual assistant and w/o
• the order
• half begin with Visual assistant and half are not(Pizza box assembly)
• half begin without Visual assistant and half are not(software packing)
• to help the impact of the first task trial on performing the second task trial

The order part is a good way to lower the first time memory impact.

就輔員所關心的

他們需要提供怎樣的學員

• 大部分學員已經對仁愛醫院已經熟悉
• 記憶功能較差
• 能使用PDA手機，執行拍照工作(我有擔心他們沒辦法完成照完QR code需要將程式關閉)

實驗的方法初步構想

• 單一學員需要走三次
• 1st，就輔員帶領
• 2nd，在沒有輔助工具到達目的
• 3rd，以WADER方式進行
• 如果沒有輔助方法，學員第一次來到陌生地方如何到達目的地
• 就輔員帶領
• 寫下文字敘述，有地圖輔助

實驗日期

• 初步訂於12月
  

WADER Experiment design-fixed

• 現場訪查
• 時間：實驗前幾天
  
• 目的：尋找合適實驗路徑，關鍵點位
• 方式：照相紀錄
• 人數：2 人
• 器材：照相機

• 設定路徑
• 目的：決定哪種路徑適合本次實驗
• 討論一個目的或多個目的地

REF:Indoor Wayfinding: Developing a Functional Interface for Individuals with Cognitive Impairments

New found research from University of Oregon

Homepage of Professor Stephen Fickas

SRC possible questions

Why not use RFID?
Most the people own a phone with a digital camera.

Could you give a brief introduction of your research?

explain:
for who?Why for them.
Most of the people with cognitive impairment can have some regular jobs, but sometimes they can not travel on their own because the part of damage of their brain. The need someone to remind them.

The architecture figure.
PDA , Server , QR-code.

Could you explain what is the deviation recovery?
We can not expect all the people can follow the QR code.
So we must have some reminder for the user.
The count down process of the picture will be execute when the expected next QR code is not shot.
When the wrong QR code is shot, the navigation picture will guide you back to the right way to your destination.

Could QR codes be seen easily?
The code can be resize to any scale. If the place is allowed. OK, if the men can't not find the QR code, the caregiver can find out in the google maps when the point keep staying in the same place.

It's not clear when the indoor position is shown on the google maps.
This a problem. If it's in indoor, the map need a special design in more large scale.

Are you sure that people with cognitive impairment can use this device?
Our device is focusing on the those need helps. We are trying to cost down everything that make them affordable. QR codes are so easy to deploy comparing to sensors. I'm not very sure that it can work for everyone. But we can try to find out the problem when the users and caregivers give feedback. Fortunately, we have a long relationship with a hospital in Taiwan. The deeper experiment can be continued in next month. Technology sometimes is not easy to find patients for test. The privacy is a big concern.

I feel pressure

It's not fun when someone is going to question me.
And I need to be compared with someone.

Assessment

• six high school students with moderate cognitive disabilities
• poor coordination
• slight visual acuity
• chosen with the assistance of the teacher

Review

ASSETS
-------------------- review 1 --------------------
Please address each of the following issues in your review:
* What original contribution is being made to the field of accessibility? Why does it matter?

This abstract discusses a technology for way finding that will assist individuals with cognitive impairments.
It combines a encoding technology called QR codes, PDAs and a tracking system.

* The validity of the methodology and results. How confidently can others take up the work?

The architectural components that make up the technology have not been presented in an understandable way so to get a sense of what is unique or novel. For example Figure 3, which seems to be a key component is hardly explained.
As far as the usage of this technology is concerned what I would like to know is this - does it
need care givers to monitor the system. It appears to be.
It is not clear how others can take this work up.

* Coverage of related research.

There are just 3 references. So
it is difficult to clearly assess the contribution of this work w.r.t. related work.

* Organization, language and written presentation.

The abstract is not well presented. The language and writing is ok.


-------------------- review 2 --------------------
Please address each of the following issues in your review:

* What original contribution is being made to the field of accessibility? Why does it matter? hand held navigation aid using visible waymarks

* The validity of the methodology and results. How confidently can others take up the work?
the description of the deviation management scheme should be expanded

* Coverage of related research.
ok... there's a lot more, but can't all be sited in an abstract

* Organization, language and written presentation.
good

[Paper]Mobile Interaction with Visual and RFID Tags – A Field Study on User Perceptions

To be read.

ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present a study of user perceptions on
mobile interaction with visual and RFID tags. Although
mobile interaction with tags has been proposed in several
earlier studies, user perceptions and usability comparisons
of different tag technologies have not been intensively
investigated. In contrast to earlier studies, which report on
user studies with evaluating new concepts or interaction
techniques, we take another approach and examine the
current understanding of the techniques and user
perceptions on them. Our field study of 50 users charts
currently existing user perceptions and reveals potential
usability risks that are due to the limited or erroneous
understanding of the interaction technique.

QR code的工作指引與定向導航的困難

工作指引部份：
目前找不到新的素材，新穎的創意來研究。
AbleLink雖然已經有初步已經可以使用的產品，但是我們沒有想到更美好的使用方法。
定向導航：
已經有初步的成果，但缺少大量的數據來印證，並藉由實際人員的操作來改善使用經驗。
在目前的研究的對象，學員的狀況有很大的差異，每個人的能力不同，要統整起來一起實驗，似乎仍有困難。

雖然可以嘗試找更多的reference，但是等於現在又重回剛開始的survey工作，顯得力不從心，
缺乏明確目標。

http://140.135.8.178/lab/timer/Default3.aspx

In my test, pocket IE doesn't support this kind of javascript.
So I found an alternative brower which is called opera for mobile can support.
Surprisely, they claim opera 9 will have advanced functionality with Ajax and Web2.0.

problem solved

(b)為了處理完全找不到下一個QR code，我們的程式要倒數，所以網頁不能直接轉換到圖片網址，需要留在網頁處理倒數的程式

Wayfinding image stays in the same asp page now.
So I can focus on the count down(use asp language, I guess) on the that asp page.

agenda

1. 部落格上提出 (1) 月工作計畫 (2) 論文閱讀計劃。
In June,
(a)miss QR code and never find another one -> count to time out and send alert to the job coaches or parents

做海報的藝術

From 張耀仁老師
我過去擔任評審的經驗：現場擺放NB，是幫助你解說用的，不要期待評審會主動去看。因為

1.NB擺放位置低，彎腰看很難過。
2.白晝下,　ＬＣＤ螢幕看不清楚。
3.評審時間緊湊，不會駐足太久，更不可能停下來欣賞投影片播放。

所以你的海報與口頭說明，搭配實物展示，才是關鍵。

可參考
國外的學術海報，相當漂亮

要注意海報中是否
1. 圖說橫豎不一，應該統一。
2. 看不出哪個圖說對應到哪張圖，好像都擠成一堆。
3. 海報裡有七種不同 font size與粗細變化，略顯凌亂與隨意，想想看，如何稍微收斂與整理

一下。
4.注意留白的藝術，整個海報太過擁擠。再怎麼多的內容，也要給讀者一點喘息的空間!
5.Don't use double circles as bullets.

From 胡院長
競賽用的海報 希望能一開使就抓住評審的心 因為他們逗留的時間不會太久 主要的內容也在報告內有說明 大標題要明確的說明此題目的緣由 主要的貢獻 優點要大大的寫出來 讓不懂的人先問你些問題 你就知道大家的疑惑 就可以找出重點

The "bar code" solution is best for cell.

http://blogs.zdnet.com/ip-telephony/?p=1579

以現今來說，手機的營幕因為要輕薄短小的需求，總是得犧牲體積或面積大小，也因此侷限了輸入方式，以使用者為被動方式來擷取資料，類似push mail的概念，將資料先塞入你的cell，在進行互動，省去lousy的打字，再搜尋。版面太小需要的資料更是要符合使用者需求，使用者在外時哪耐的著性子一再的搜尋，在等待下一班車時的空檔時間，可能不長，但是這一些零散的時間加總起來，也是可觀的數字，時間=金錢，如果有廠商願意開發，讓使用者能在這段時間花錢使用服務，獲利空間還是存在。

怎樣知道這篇是一篇好論文

最近查到的幾篇論文
一直在想要不要仔細看 這到底是一篇好論文嗎？
嘗試google一下點數的算法
原來可以從ISI Web of Knowledge查到

後來又想到老師好像有寫給研究生看的東西
果然是好物 等等把他整理在blog

note:
論文＝paper

看看別人怎麼做的

今天一早起來 例行性的打開Firefox看看有什麼新鮮事
在看Google Forum的時候 連到 Prof. Jahui的研究室網站
蠻驚豔的 他們的研究生把今天做的事整理得很好 (有被逼嗎？ 哈)
一目了然 工作事項 都有紀錄 真的要好好學習一下
寫部落格 讓老師知道我們在做什麼 經驗可以讓我們不要偏離軌道太遠

有時候也會覺得把今天做的事情 重複一次寫下來有什麼意義
讓自己不會忘記？ 整理思緒？ ....

有沒有這個可能

針對精障者的導航的路線其實有很多固定的路線
如果能設計一個軟體 讓就輔員自行用pda手機的Camera拍攝下重要的地標 轉灣 轉乘
在透過GPS或WiFi來偵測是否已經到了要轉彎的地方
pop up提示的方向和聲音 類似PaPaGo上面的指標提醒
但是地圖改成照片 雖然沒有像之前日本的導航軟體設計的那麼好 可以全程模擬
以真實的照片替代或許有不同的效果

API update

1. 利用vs API load到 HP pda，是透過電腦的網路去抓訊號，不是用PDA的Wi-Fi
2. 如果將程式直接拉到PDA執行時，Wi-Fi會自動關閉，還在找原因
