“…With the study of user actions, this algorithm may be improved to do even more tasks [40]. As part of their research, Shivakumar and Rajasenathipathi used hardware control techniques and a screen input application to link people who are deaf or blind to a computer so that they may use modern computer technology for communication purposes, such as vibrating gloves [41].…”

Recent years have seen a surge in interest in the multifaceted topic of human-computer interaction (HCI). Since the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the significance of human-computer interaction in the field of safety risk management has only grown. There has not been a lot of focus on developing human-computer interaction for identifying potential hazards in buildings. After conducting a comprehensive literature review, we developed a study framework for the use of human-computer interaction in the identification of construction-related hazards (CHR-HCI). Future studies will focus on the intersection of computer vision, VR, and ergonomics. In this research, we have built a theoretical foundation for past studies’ findings and connections and offered concrete recommendations for the improvement of HCI in danger identification in the future. Moreover, we analyzed two cases studies related to the domain of CHR-HCI in terms of wearable vibration-based systems and context aware navigation.

Abstract:In individuals with impaired hearing, determining the direction of sound is a significant problem. The direction of sound was determined in this study, which allowed hearing impaired individuals to perceive where sounds originated. This study also determined whether something was being spoken loudly near the hearing impaired individual. In this manner, it was intended that they should be able to recognize panic conditions more quickly. The developed wearable system has four microphone inlets, two vibration motor outlets, and four Light Emitting Diode (LED) outlets. The vibration of motors placed on the right and left fingertips permits the indication of the direction of sound through specific vibration frequencies. This study applies the ReliefF feature selection method to evaluate every feature in comparison to other features and determine which features are more effective in the classification phase. This study primarily selects the best feature extraction and classification methods. Then, the prototype device has been tested using these selected methods on themselves. ReliefF feature selection methods are used in the studies; the success of K nearest neighborhood (Knn) classification had a 93% success rate and classification with Support Vector Machine (SVM) had a 94% success rate. At close range, SVM and two of the best feature methods were used and returned a 98% success rate. When testing our wearable devices on users in real time, we used a classification technique to detect the direction and our wearable devices responded in 0.68 s; this saves power in comparison to traditional direction detection methods. Meanwhile, if there was an echo in an indoor environment, the success rate increased; the echo canceller was disabled in environments without an echo to save power. We also compared our system with the localization algorithm based on the microphone array; the wearable device that we developed had a high success rate and it produced faster results at lower cost than other methods. This study provides a new idea for the benefit of deaf individuals that is preferable to a computer environment.

Purpose To compile the current research on interventions for rehabilitation aimed at adults (aged 18-65 years) with deafblindness. Materials and methods A comprehensive search was conducted in eight databases. An additional manual search was also carried out. A total of 7049 unique references were initially identified, and after screening, 28 original scientific articles were included. The results from these articles were categorized based on limiting consequences of deafblindness: communication, orientation and to move around freely and safely and access to information, as well as to psychological adaptation to deafblindness. Results Fourteen of the included articles had their main focus on access to communication, ten on orientation and the ability to move around feely and safely, three on the opportunity to gain access to information, and one related to psychological adaptation to deafblindness. Most articles focused on technical devices, of which one-third were single case studies. Conclusion There is a limited number of evaluated interventions for people with deafblindness. Most of the existing studies involved one to five participants with deafblindness, and only few studies involved a larger number of participants. More research with a larger number of participants are needed, which could be facilitated by international cooperation between practitioners and researchers.
