An A Student ESL 118 XXX Elizabeth Halsey GRP Working Bibliography February 16th 20xx Word count 586 Entry 1 Sharma V Simpson R C LoPresti E F Schmeler M 2012 Clinical evaluation of semiautonomous smart wheelchair architecture Drive Safe System with visually impaired individuals The Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development 49 1 35 50 doi 10 1682 jrrd 2010 03 0022 Sharma et al 2012 conducted a study to determine the effectiveness of the Drive Safe System DSS which is a system that incorporates the use of semiautonomous smart wheelchair for visually impaired people In comparison to using a conventional cane for navigation assistance Sharma et al found that individuals who used DSS reported a significant decrease in frequency of collisions with other objects while maintaining the same amount of time for task completion In addition to experiencing less physical contact Sharma et al say that DSS users reported that using the DSS did not require extra effort in order to be operated hence it is considered a reliable solution to increase independent mobility for blind people I intend to use this scholarly article to provide evidence to the claim saying that artificial intelligence would help increase the mobility of people with disabilities Since the authors include the ratings from participants via a task load index I will analyze the data to see how I can use it to show the effectiveness of the system Entry 2 Morrison C Cutrell E Dhareshwar A Doherty K Thieme A Taylor A 2017 Imagining artificial intelligence applications with people with visual disabilities using tactile ideation Proceedings of the 19th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility ASSETS 17 doi 10 1145 3132525 3132530 Morrison et al 2017 conducted a study to look for new techniques and applications involving artificial intelligence AI for visually disabled people using tactile ideation Morrison et al found that the participants which are from the UK and India generated ideas focusing mostly on needs related to social interactions and social participations The ideas and outcomes of the ideation are then utilized to design AI technologies that would cater the needs of the visually impaired individuals with main focus to increase their social interactions and participations Morrison et al say I am going to use this article to help me find more ideas so that I can provide evidence to support my argument which argues that AI would help increase social participations for disabled people In the article the authors include social problems faced by the blind people so I will analyze those examples to see how AI is capable of overcoming those problems Entry 3 Salisbury D 2013 November 7 Robotic advances promise artificial legs that emulate healthy limbs Retrieved from https news vanderbilt edu 2013 11 07 robotic legs healthy limbs Salisbury 2013 cites Michael Goldfarb a Mechanical Engineering professor who stated that recent developments in robotics technology are driving the creation of smart prosthetics that are able to imitate the natural movement of human limbs Salisbury then says that Goldfarb and his team has been researching on robotic prosthesis for the past ten years and they managed to develop the first artificial leg that can be controlled by thought He then discusses the advantages of using bionic legs One of the advantages is that robotic leg users are less likely to fall down while walking which may lead to hospitalization compared to the standard artificial leg users since they have more control over their robotic legs I am going to use this article to provide evidence for one of my points which says that artificial intelligence AI would help disabled people to overcome physical barriers The detailed explanations in the article might be helpful to show the efficacy of the robotic limbs
