Become a hot spotlight
At the Hongkou District Rainbow Cultural Festival for the Disabled, which opened on May 14, a variety of scientific and technological products that hit the "pain points" of the lives of the disabled were unveiled. How does "black technology" open up a "barrier-free" life for people with disabilities? Follow the reporter to the scene to see.
"Oh, that's amazing! I can't hear it clearly, but I can clearly 'see' what you're saying. ”
The staff helped Ms. Qian experience AR smart hearing glasses
Ms. Qian, who is experiencing AR smart hearing glasses, is a hearing-impaired person. Because of the disease, her hearing was affected and she could only hear faint sounds. "Especially in a noisy environment, when you can't hear clearly, you have to ask people to speak louder, or judge what the other party is saying by looking at the shape of your mouth."
Shoot the process of AR smart glasses audio and text translation
Ms. Qian was pleasantly surprised to find that after wearing the AR smart hearing glasses, as the staff began to speak, a string of green subtitles appeared in the right lens, which was a real-time audio translation. In this way, even if she can't hear what the other person is saying, she can clearly "see" the content of the other person's speech through the "subtitles" on the lens.
"People with hearing impairment encounter many difficulties in their daily lives, including communication problems, social relationship problems, and so on." According to the on-site staff, AR smart hearing glasses can realize the generation of mobile subtitles through transparent optical waveguide technology and speech-to-text technology, which can help hearing-impaired people overcome communication difficulties in daily life.
In addition to AR smart glasses, the event also prepared a barrier-free experience project of "VR World View" for people with physical disabilities.
Visitors "see the world" through VR equipment
The reporter noticed that the VR experience project includes a total of 15 video resources with four major themes, including the red journey and exploring the universe.
"It feels very real, the Yellow Mountain is full of clouds and mist, and it is very ......beautiful," said Mr. Zhang, a physically handicapped person who experienced the experience, and said that he had always had a dream to go to Huangshan to see. I experienced the VR equipment before, there is really an immersive feeling, with the help of technology, we can travel to the motherland without leaving 'Shanghai', which is great! ”
"Audio Reading" service
In addition, the "reading space" in the experience area is specially designed for the visually impaired. Here, the visually impaired can put on headphones and experience the "sound free" reading service.
"Today's barrier-free experience area is actually something we moved from the 'rainbow'." Han Yufeng, a third-level researcher of the Hongkou District Disabled Persons' Federation, introduced that at the end of last year, the Hongkou District Disabled Persons' Federation revitalized the stock resources and specially created a cultural and creative space in the Shikumen decorative style in the activity center located at No. 22 Guangzhong Branch Road, and combined with the construction of the word "Hong" and "cultural three places" in Hongkou District, named "Rainbow Li".
"Rainbow Lane" cultural and creative space for the disabled
In this cultural and creative space exclusively for the disabled, there are not only a variety of barrier-free assistive devices and facilities that integrate hard-core technology and loving ingenuity, but also through the new platform position, so that the disabled can obtain more systematic and high-quality cultural services.
Technological barrier-free facilities in the "Rainbow Lane".
"Science and technology assistance for the disabled is one of the effective means to achieve a high level of development for the disabled. Especially in today's increasingly advanced science and technology, while allowing people with disabilities to experience the development of science and technology and social progress, they should also be able to truly experience the convenience brought by science and technology, which can help them better participate in social life. Han Yufeng said that this year, the Hongkou District Disabled Persons' Federation will also closely focus on the focus of science and technology to help the disabled, promote various tasks in an orderly manner, and continuously improve the happiness and sense of gain of the disabled.
