Doğrusal Braille alfabesi için haptik cihaz tasarımı

Touch is the most common sense for the human body. The human can discover and recognise approximately everything by touching it. In the proposed work, this property of human body is focused on to provide some capabilities to impaired people. The proposed system is based on generation of different vibrational effects to present digital information to the user. In one embodiment of this system, digital letters are represented with vibrational effects. Therefore, distinguishable vibrational effects are generated for accurately detection of the digital information. The hybraille mouse system is explained as an example electronic device which comprises the proposed system. Nowadays, the impaired people use external devices, such as Braille displays, to read digital information. However, these devices have some disadvantages, such as limited display area, expensive to repair them, seeming extra-ordinary…etc. Hence these cause additional obstacle to the impaired people and affecting their psychology negatively. Therefore, one of the purposes of this system is to provide reading and writing capability to the impaired people with the helping of standard looking devices. The system can be integrated to keyboard, mouse…etc. In content of the thesis, the mouse, which is called as hybraille mouse, is focused on to explain the system in more efficient way. The end device will be cheap, easy to use, working with higher rate of accuracy, looking as usual devices. These properties of the system also supports the user psychologically, hence they will not discriminated from other people.
