Embodiments in accordance with the present disclosure provide an apparatus that facilitates education and learning through tactile sensory demonstration and action. The apparatus includes a first part and a second part attached to the first part. The first part may be worn by a guide, while the second part may be worn by a child or a student undergoing training. The apparatus allows the guide to control the movements of the child or the student.

A computer aided instruction system includes a keyboard driver and an instruction renderer. The keyboard driver is configured to retrieve a keyboard input from a user before the application receives the keyboard input, and the instruction renderer is configured to execute a computer aided instruction tutorial to instruct the user to input a specific key or key combination. The keyboard driver is further configured to transmit the keyboard input to the instruction renderer to evaluate whether the one or more keystrokes matches the specific key or key combination.

In a mobility support device, an external device that is present on a moving route of a user who is a target of support is identified based on a set moving plan, and first communication means that enables direct communication between the identified external device and a white cane carried by the user is established. Then, support information for supporting mobility of the user is generated based on information received from the external device by the first communication means, and the generated support information is output to an output device.

Embodiments for an intelligent directing service in an Internet of Things (IoT) computing environment by a processor. One or more objects may be identified within a defined region relative to an entity. At least a portion of an extremity of the entity may be directed to select or avoid the one or more objects according to one or more internet of things (IoT) devices.

A walking assisting system for a user. The system includes first and second sub-systems each having at least one optical sensor, for example a camera. The first sub-system is fitted to the user's abdomen region, for example waist, and the second sub-system is fitted to the user's head region, for example eyes. The system is arranged to align between data obtained from optical sensors of the first and second sub-systems in order to indicate to the user presence of obstacles detected by the first sub-system in a coordinate system of the second sub-system.

Embodiments disclosed herein include methods and apparatuses for providing security to computer users with disabilities, who configure their computers to personalize output in a fashion that enables the user to more easily understand the content of the output. While previously a computer configured to personalize output accordingly may have served as a source of disability information to unauthorized parties accessing the computers, embodiments disclosed herein configure computers for personalization without leaving thereon a record how the personalization was specified during the configuration process. Thus, an unauthorized party gaining access to the user's computer would find it very difficult, if not impossible, to determine the user's disability from an inspection of the computer, so the user is much less likely to become a victim of fraud based on an unauthorized discovery of information regarding vulnerabilities.

Embodiments in accordance with the present disclosure provide an apparatus that facilitates education and learning through tactile sensory demonstration and action. The apparatus includes a first part and a second part attached to the first part. The first part may be worn by a guide, while the second part may be worn by a child or a student undergoing training. The apparatus allows the guide to control the movements of the child or the student.

Disclosed are training method, program and computing device to ameliorate visual field defect. The method includes presenting, by a computer, a virtual first object on a screen, wherein the first object is presented in an approaching manner toward the subject from a first position to a second position, when a position of the first object reaches the second position, the dividing, by the computer, of the first object into objects and presenting the divided objects on the screen or removing, by the computer, the first object from the screen, when the first object is divided or removed, presenting, by the computer, a virtual second object and a virtual third object on the screen, and receiving, by the computer, an identification input about the second object and the third object from a response input device of the subject.

A computer-implemented method and a navigation system are described for guiding a visually impaired user to avoid obstructions and impediments while walking. The user may wear a plurality of subassemblies of the system. The tilt and rotation of the user's head may be monitored using one of the subassemblies worn on the user's head. Based at least in part on the tilt and rotation of the user's head, vertical and horizontal firing angles used by a distance measuring unit in each of the subassemblies may be calculated to transmit and receive laser signals to perform measurements. The user is then provided with navigation instructions and alarms based on whether an obstruction or an impediment is detected that is closer than a predetermined distance to the user while the user is walking based on the measurements.

A wearable device determines an objective based on analyzing a voice of a user, where the wearable device comprises one or more wearable sensors and one or more wearable actuators. The wearable device identifies objects by the one or more wearable sensors. The wearable device determines an action based on the objective and the identified objects and guides the user to achieve and objective by the one or more wearable actuators.
