Augmented Reality (AR) in fingerprint systems for the inclusion in society of people with limited abilities (auditory and language)

At present the various forms of communication are essentia l in addition to being a paramount parameter for the human being, since it allows and facilitates relating, expressing and, above all; transmit or exchange information. All of the living beings communicate in diverse ways, with the use of symbols, audio, images, movements and most importantly through a language composed of words. It is usual to encounter people with some type of physical or menta l limitation. According to data from Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INE GI), there is a great number of people with speech and hearing impediments, in Michoacán, for every 1,000 inhabitants there are 69 people with some kind of disability, from which approximately 19.4% of this population can relate directly with speech and communication problems. The majority of the people in any situation lack the ability and knowledge necessary to establish effective communication with people that suffer this type of limitation, like hearing and visual impediment. This is why the presented in vestigation aims to contribute a model proposal, through the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s), with the tools of Augmented Reality (AR), that gives and permits the user manipulate accessible and intuitive interfaces, so that the people with hearing and speech disabilities can establish a visual-text communication without the need for intermediaries and with their own sign language.
