Utility, usability and acceptability of robotic arm for helping motor impairment people (quadriplegic, muscular dystrophy, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) must be improved. The robotic arm JACO of company ©Kinova is controlled by a joystick, sometimes unusable by patients. The IRIT laboratory has designed three types of virtual interfaces: one based on virtual keyboards and two others on Pie Menu concepts. These interfaces were designed by mean of a user centred design approach (UCDA) including brain storming, focus group, iterative prototyping and trials. Then an experiment is described with two patients (Spinal Muscular Atrophy and cerebral palsy). This experiment shows that the three interfaces designed by a UCDA are usable by them.
必须提高用于帮助运动功能受损人群(四肢瘫痪、肌肉萎缩症、肌萎缩侧索硬化症)的机械臂的实用性、可用性和可接受性。©Kinova公司的JACO机械臂由操纵杆控制,患者有时无法使用。IRIT实验室设计了三种类型的虚拟界面:一种基于虚拟键盘,另外两种基于饼图菜单概念。这些界面是通过以用户为中心的设计方法(UCDA)设计的,包括头脑风暴、焦点小组、迭代原型制作和试验。然后描述了对两名患者(脊髓性肌萎缩症和脑瘫)进行的一项实验。该实验表明,通过UCDA设计的这三种界面他们都可以使用。
