  3. 2. FACE : Disabled People, Technology and Internet

    Författare :Peter Anderberg; Bodil Jönsson; Alan Roulstone; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Design; FACE; Independent Living; Disability Studies; Social Model; Internet; Functioning; Rehabilitation Engineering; Care and help to handicapped; Handikappade; vård och rehabilitering; SoTL; Design; FACE; Independent Living; Disability Studies; Social Model; Internet; Functioning; Rehabilitation Engineering; Care and help to handicapped; Handikappade; vård och rehabilitering; SoTL;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on the Internet experiences of people withsignificant mobility/physical impairments who are proficient andexperienced computer users in their computer world but havelimitations in mobility that severely restrict their functioning inthe physical world. The Internet functioning of this group isanalysed by means of the factors attitude, control and enabling,with the main focus on what is achievable when all accessproblems such as unadapted interfaces, beginners’ difficulties andthe digital divide are overcome.

  4. 3. Non-Visual Haptic Interaction Design - Guidelines and Applications

    Författare :Calle Sjöström; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Design Guidelines; Computer access; Care and help to handicapped; vård och rehabilitering; Handikappade; Blind People; Haptics; Human-Computer Interaction;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation has three cornerstones: * Haptics * Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) * Blind Users Haptics deals with controlling human movements and getting feedback through the sense of touch. A haptic interface transmits forces to a person’s hand or fingers in a way that mimics the sensation of touching real objects. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The Useworthiness of Robots for People with Physical Disabilities

    Författare :Håkan Eftring; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Page-turning; End-effector; RAID; Manus; Independence; Needs Analysis; Simplified Robot Use; Automatic Grasping; Case Studies.; Ethics; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; rehabilitation; revalidation; kinesitherapy; Physical medicine; Rehabilitation Robotics; Robots; Physical Disabilities; Useworthiness; Usability;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with robotics and the new possibilities it offers people with physical disabilities. I focus on the user and the use of the technology and, in particular, on what makes robotic aids worth using - useworthiness as distinguished from usability. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Optics for Low Vision Enabling

    Författare :Jörgen Gustafsson; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Eccentric viewing; Low vision optics; Low vision rehabilitation; People with low vision; Preferred retinal; locus PRL ; Resolution; Visual acuity; Ophtalmology; Medicinsk teknik; Medical technology; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; rehabilitation; revalidation; kinesitherapy; Oftalmologi; Physical medicine; Contrast sensitivity; Detection; Eccentric correction; CFL ; Central visual field loss; Central scotoma; Aberrations; Astigmatism;

    Sammanfattning : For people with central visual field loss, eccentric vision is all that they have to rely on. Even for those who learn how to correctly utilize their eccentric vision, it will never be as good as the central for two entirely different reasons: the off-axis optics of the eye can result in large refractive errors, and the low function of the peripheral retina.
