“…Feng et al (2019) used the mismatch negativity (MMN) evoked potential to investigate Mandarin lexical tone and vowel and consonant processing at the pre-attentive stage in early-onset blind and sighted participants, using a passive oddball paradigm. Compared to the sighted control group, the blind group had a shorter MMN peak latency for lexical tones in the right hemisphere, possibly suggesting more rapid pre-attentive processing.…”

“…Föcker et al (2012) showed that, compared to a sighted group, a congenitally blind group learned to associate names and voices more quickly, were more accurate when identifying the speaker using novel voice samples, and displayed enhanced verbal memory (Amedi et al, 2003). Feng et al (2019) used the mismatch negativity (MMN) evoked potential to investigate Mandarin lexical tone and vowel and consonant processing at the pre-attentive stage in early-onset blind and sighted participants, using a passive oddball paradigm.

“…Mills [68] outlined that children with VI due to peripheral origin usually develop fully intelligible speech within the same time frame as sighted children. In a recent study, Feng et al [69] showed that they have enhanced attentional sensitivity to "non-visual" components of language such as phonetic-phonological components. Roder and colleague [70] showed that blind participants were more efficient than sighted children in terms of phonological processing.…”

Autistic-Like Features in Visually Impaired Children: A Review of Literature and Directions for Future Research

et al. 2020

There remains great interest in understanding the relationship between visual impairment (VI) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) due to the extraordinarily high prevalence of ASD in blind and visually impaired children. The broad variability across individuals and assessment methodologies have made it difficult to understand whether autistic-like symptoms shown by some children with VI might reflect the influence of the visual deficit, or represent a primary neurodevelopmental condition that occurs independently of the VI itself. In the absence of a valid methodology adapted for the visually impaired population, diagnosis of ASD in children with VI is often based on non-objective clinical impression, with inconclusive prevalence data. In this review, we discuss the current state of knowledge and suggest directions for future research.

“…In Bahasa has two systems: vowel and consonant whereas in English has more than 2 vocal systems, diphthongs, consonants and clusters. If in Bahasa only recognize the vowels / a / -/ i / -/ u / -/ e / -/ o / but in English many vowel / -/ ɑ: / -/ ɒ / -/ ɜ: / -/ i: / -/ ʊ / -/ u: / -/ Ʌ / -/ I / and the vowel is not easy to pronounce for some people [1]- [5].…”

English is an international language and important to learn. For someone learning English sometimes is a difficulty, especially in pronunciation. Therefore, SMART-In is a prototype of Android App that uses Speech Recognition technology by utilizing services from the Cloud Speech API (Application Programming Interface). SMART-In English can be used as an alternative to English learning, especially in the pronunciation of a word. Using speech recognition can display the score of the pronunciation spoken by the user, recorded, show a level the pronunciation of the word and display the correct pronunciation.
