77 -Inclusive Design in the SALLe Project:
78 78  
79 -Since our robot is made to be used by people with dementia we have to consider the following possible disabilities:
80 -* cognitive disability
81 -** memory
82 -** orientation -> wandering
83 -* motor
84 -** limited endurance, strength, range of motion (due to old age)
85 -** use of mobility assistance ("Rollator")
86 -* slow movement and processing of environment, speech etc.
87 -* difficulties in seeing: especially small things, reading screens (Varifocal glasses)
88 -* difficulties in hearing: high frequencies, silent speech/ sounds
89 -
90 -of course, there can be several other disabilities that are not related to old age or dementia.
91 -
92 -How to address these disabilities and make our robot accessible to them:
93 -* cognitive disability:
94 -
95 -* motor
96 -** no need, since pepper is also kind of "disabled" in motion and can't handle stairs:D
97 -** pepper can be used without motions, pressing buttons etc.
98 -
99 -* slow movement and processing of environment, speech etc.:
100 -** reduce speed of peppers speech (there is a toolbar to lower the speed)
101 -** use easy language
102 -** underline what has been said by showing images on the tablet. Don't switch the images to fast
103 -** wait long enough for response
104 -* difficulties in seeing:
105 -** use large images in high quality
106 -** good lightning of tablet
107 -* difficulties in hearing:
108 -** slow speech
109 -** loud (but be careful with the amplitude of music, since to loud music can be stressful)
110 -** good pronunciation of words
