  • 국제적 추세와 사례를 감안하여 볼 때 웹 접근성 문제는 점점 더 중요한 이슈로 부각될 것이 자명하다. 정보기술이 한국사회 전반에 걸쳐 폭넓게, 빠르게 변화시키고 있지만, 장애인, 노인 등은 정보 서비스의 활용에서 소외되고 있다 그들이 직면한 가장 큰 장애 중의 하나가 웹 서비스의 접근성 부재라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 사회적 문제들은 정보기술과 복지정책과 관련해서 연구되어야 할 매우 중요한 과제로 부각되고 있음에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구 노력은 아직 매우 부족한 실정에 있다. 본 연구의 목표는 무선 인터넷 사용자 인터페이스 설계 지침을 개발함으로써 정보격차 해소에 기여하고, 시각장애인들이 웹 접근권을 보장받을 수 있도록 하는 데 있다. 본 논문에서는 국내외 웹 접근성 관련 법률 및 정책동향을 살펴보고 시각장애인의 웹 접근성 향상을 위한 몇 가지 새로운 무선인터넷 사용자 인터페이스 설계지침을 제안하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was firstly to provide fundamental data on the activation for the IP-based video phone for the special consumer related to the physically handicapped; secondly to inform empirical data for the consumer public policy in the information technology market, specially for the deaf people. The results of study showed that consumer needs extend to not only simple voice communication for general consumers but also special demands for both the handicapped and the elderly. This study also indicated that VoIP's characteristics of technology would be easily applied to the TRS or VRS which can be adapted to the special consumer market so that VoIP service would be optimal technology for the special consumers like the deaf. In order to successfully implement TRS & VRS business, the paper proposed as follows; 1) the provision of VoIP service enable to satisfying consumers in special market such as the deaf market and the elderly market, 2) the necessity of supporting policy by the related law, and 3) the construction of the system inducing interests from the market participants.

  • 공공도서관의 서비스는 나이, 인종, 신분 등과 관계없이 누구에게나 평등하게 제공되어야 한다. 하지만 장애인들은 도서관 이용과 서비스 활용 측면에서 막연한 두려움과 불안감으로 공공도서관을 불편한 공공시설로 인식하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 장애인들이 공공도서관을 이용함에 있어서 느끼는 도서관불안이 무엇인지 알아보고자한다. 이를 위해 한국형 도서관불안 측정도구(K-LAS)를 가지고 지체, 시각, 청각, 뇌병변 장애인을 대상으로 설문조사하였다. 그 결과 대체로 장애인들은 도서관직원과 심리적 정서적 영역에 대한 불안이 높았으며, 성별, 나이, 장애유형, 도서관방문빈도, 방문목적에 따라 도서관불안의 정도 차이가 매우 높았다.

  • Objective: The aim of this study is to suggest a package layout guideline for low-floor bus by interview with passengers and observations of their behavior. Background: Increasing attention has been introduced the low-floor bus to be more suitable for use by transportation handicapped. Complex issues are involved in providing comfortable services to all people. We are going to suggest package layout guidelines for more comfortable and suitable travel to all people. Method: The two times of survey and video observation sessions were conducted on low-floor buses in Seoul; (1) a finding of potential issues in the first session, (2) a confirming of issues from the last session. Results: The three of major issues were founded in this study; (1) difficulties in supporting body when standing, (2) difficulties in sitting on front wheel pan seat, (3) difficulties in passing through the aisle. Conclusion: There were clear differences between public and transportation handicapped in using some tools which are used for support body such as roof hand rails, side hand rails, and hand rail rings. Some of design problems were founded to improve from the perspective of ergonomics and universal design. Such differences and design guidelines have to be considered in bus design as well as commercial vehicle. Application: The proposed design guidelines can be used to development of low-floor bus and other public transportations.

  • 현재까지 우리나라에서 출판된 큰글자도서는 저시력자를 위한 교재가 전부였다. 하지만 최근 독서문화진흥법에서 노령화에 인해 독서자료를 이용할 수 없는 사람들도 독서장애인이라고 정의한만큼 향후 노인을 위한 큰글자도서가 더 많이 보급되어야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 노인용 큰글자도서 개발을 위한 적정문자를 밝히고자 80명의 노인들을 대상으로 조사연구 하였다. 연구 목적으로 문자 모양과, 문자 크기, 문자의 행간, 도서의 판형 등에 대한 선호도를 명확하게 밝히는 것으로서 연구방법은 설문조사와 참여관찰 등을 통한 질적연구를 동시에 수행하였다.

  • This paper is the output of a collaborative European project concerning the barrier free accessibility for disabled persons to regional and long distance trains in Europe. Disabled people represent around 13% of the population in Europe. This is approximately 63 million people. The range of disabilities includes people with reduced mobility including wheel chair users, viewing and hearing impaired people and other forms of impairment. Improving accessibility aims at contributing to the provision of public transport services to all citizens in an equitable way. The purpose of the project was to analyse and to evaluate the existing solutions at selected European railways for all required modules at the entrance (doors, information and safety solutions), to derive a design concept, to develop a mock-up in meeting the needs of rail travellers with the above mentioned impairments and to test it with user groups. The project also aims at deriving components for the determination of standards. The EUPAX Design Mock-up test was performed to verify the advantages of the layout of the train segment including the different modules such as access area (including the access door, gaps between platform and train as well as boarding aid devices), entrance vestibule, information systems inside and outside the train, emergency facilities, toilet with all conveniences and the additional test arrangements regarding push buttons, steps and emergency equipment. For this purpose a questionnaire was developed for the assessment of the EUPAX segment and the additional test arrangements. With the help of this questionnaire it was possible to execute a quantitative and qualitative evaluation. During three test phases 67 experts and handicapped persons from 6 countries have evaluated the Industrial Design mock-up based on this questionnaire. The test group covered persons from North (Denmark) to the South (Italy) and from the West (Spain) to the Middle of Europe (Germany). This is especially important for the generalization (harmonisation) of the results for all European countries. According to COST 335 the information for people with reduced mobility should be clear, concise, accurate and timely. So that all information can be received from persons, they must be transferred on at least two of the three possible ways (acoustical, visual, tactile), a so called "2-sense-principle". Based on the results ergonomic specifications/ solutions for the ergonomic design of the access area, the acoustic, visual and tactile information and the emergency devices including the emergency communication system were developed, related to the benefiting passenger groups.

  • The aging society comes, the number of the old people expended. Technical aids allow elderly and handicapped people to live independently in their private homes as long as they wish. As a contribution to these required technological solutions, a demonstrator platform for a walking assistance robot. robot which has the capability to perform fetch and carry and various other supporting tasks. In this study, we addresses the development of a walking assistance robot system. We execute static analysis, vibration analysis and flexible dynamics to reserve stability at the design. Each motion of the robot uses a linear actuator and gears. Motion can be distinguished into 3 parts depending on the up & down, rotation, and cushion trans. In each motion, we compare the displacement of the case to be rigid with the case to be flexible. As a result, manufactured and feasibility of the walking assistance robot is validated through preliminary experiments.

  • The subway station platform is designed in high platform for quick getting in/out which is against ordinary train platform. Out of 370 Metropolitan subway station platforms, subway stations which have cured platform are about 38%. In these cases, as the distance between subway and platform would become longer, handicapped people's wheelchairs, baby carriers and old and feeble people can feel uncomfortable when they are getting in and out Also, passengers often fall into track because of the height difference between high platform and track. And if passengers go down on track to pick up something fallen, they sometime fail to climb up and happen to hit against subway. To solve out these kind of inconveniences and prevent accidents, we have developed subway station high platform safety system and finished tests. This safety system is consisted of safety block, screened door and safety wall. This study explained the composition and function of this system and presented the test result to identify its performance.
