Development of a Detection Device for Visually Impaired Individuals in Ambulatory Navigation

Presentation Outline Total Duration: 20 minutes 1. Introduction (2 minutes) Content: Briefly introduce the topic of visual impairment and its impact on mobility and independence. Engagement: Start with a provocative question: "How would you navigate a busy street without being able to see?" to engage the audience. 2. Overview of the Project (3 minutes) Content: Present the project objectives, emphasizing the need for technological solutions for visually impaired individuals. Engagement: Use visuals from the poster to illustrate key points and ask the audience about their experiences with assistive technologies. 3. Methodology (3 minutes) Content: Explain the mixed research approach, including the stages of testing with users with and without visual impairments. Engagement: Invite some audience members to participate in a brief navigation simulation, where one of them uses the device while others act as obstacles. 4. Device Demonstration (5 minutes) Content: Show the device in action, explaining how it works while conducting the demonstration. Engagement: Invite several audience members to try the device. They can use it to detect obstacles in a designated area, allowing them to experience its effectiveness firsthand. 5. Results and User Feedback (3 minutes) Content: Present the findings from the pilot tests, including performance metrics and user satisfaction ratings. Engagement: Use an interactive survey (via a device or app) to ask the audience which features they consider most important for such a device and share the results in real-time. 6. Future Directions (2 minutes) Content: Outline the next steps for further testing and improvements based on user feedback. Engagement: Invite the audience to think about other potential applications for the technology. Ask them to discuss in small groups for 1 minute and then share one idea with the larger group. 7. Conclusion and Call to Action (2 minutes) Content: Summarize the key points and the importance of promoting social inclusion for visually impaired individuals. Engagement: End with a powerful statement or quote about inclusion. Invite the audience to connect with the project through social media or sign up for updates. Engagement Tactics Peer Interaction: Encourage discussions among audience members during the simulation and brainstorming activities. Device-Based Activities: Allow the audience to try the device and participate in the demonstration so they can see its functionality in action. Games or Contests: Use interactive polls and questions to keep the audience engaged and encourage participation. Frequency of Engagement Throughout the presentation, aim to involve the audience every 3-5 minutes with questions, activities, or demonstrations to maintain their interest and participation.
