  • In this paper, we propose an efficient auto-fitting system for digital hearing-aids which automatically adjusts the fitting parameters according to the auditory characteristics of hearing handicapped person. The fitting parameters are extracted from audiogram of hearing handicapped and are applied to digital hearing-aid purposed GM3036 chip. The characteristics of each parameter are compared with those from theoretical 2cc graph. The purposed system has applied to 50 patients and their satisfaction ratios show to the very high.

  • 본 연구는 장애인생활시설에서의 정보화에 대한 고찰이다. 정규 시각장애인학교와 장애인생활시설의 시각장애인 교육환경의 비교하기 위하여 대전의 한 장애인생활시설을 선정하고. 장애인생활시설에 몸담고 있는 원생의 유형별, 연령별 인원현황, 연령별 교사현황, 컴퓨터 보유현황, 원생의 주간교육 일정, 시각장애인용 기자재 보유현황 등을 조사하였다. 그 결과 시각장애자에게 있어서 정보화의 기초가 되는 점자 숙지자가 많지 않아 점자교육의 확대가 필요하였고, 정규학교와 달리 컴퓨터교육에 필요한 기자재가 턱없이 부족하여 학습의 환경조성이 시급한 상황이었다. 또한, 교사 중 일부만이 사회복지나 특수교육을 전공하였고, 컴퓨터를 전공한 사람은 단 한 명도 없었다. 그 이유는 아직 장애인 생활시설의 교사채용기준은 법으로 규정되어 있지 않고 생활시설의 교사에 대한 처우가 일반학교의 교사에 대한 처우에 못 미치는 상황이어서 전공자의 임용지원이 많지 않기 때문이었다. 장애인 생활시설에서 정보화 촉진을 위해 정부의 지원을 바탕으로 한 기자재의 확충과 꾸준한 교육연수를 통한 전문지식인의 양성과 그에 걸 맞는 물리적, 사회적 대우를 통하여 원생들에게 질 높은 교육환경을 제공하는 것이 시급한 것으로 조사되었다.

  • 시각장애인은 주변 인지 장애로 정보 습득이 어렵고, 공간 정보 습득에 있어서 제약이 있는 신체조건으로 이동에 불편을 겪는다. 또한 특정 상황에서 적절한 분위기를 인지하고 그에 맞는 대응을 하기가 어렵다. IoT 시대에 맞춰 홈 네트워크 시스템이 널리 보급되어지는 추세이지만, 여전히 시각장애인이 사용하기에는 많은 어려움이 있고, 불편을 호소하는 게 현실이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 시각장애인을 위해 스마트폰을 이용해 음성으로 집안의 사물을 원격 제어하는 구글 음성인식 홈 리모트 컨트롤 시스템을 제안한다.
