摘要

The integration of assistive technologies (ATs) has become necessary in solving communication gaps between people with disabilities (PWDs). This study presents a design of a novel solution leveraging Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enable effective communication between individuals with visually impaired (VI) and speech-impaired (SI). For users with speech-impaired (SI), the solution utilizes text-based input devices, Conversely, visually impaired (VI) get feedback in form auditory that generated from the speech-impaired user’s input. The design focuses on ease of use, accessibility and portability, ensuring that it can adapt to different actual scenarios on our real-world. The goal of our solution is to designing and developing a robust framework that enables seamless and independent communication for individuals with dual sensory disabilities.
