<div class=""abs_img""><img src=""[disp_template_path]/JRM/abst-image/00260006/06.jpg"" width=""250"" />Supporting system of choral singing</div> Visually impaired persons may find it difficult to take part in a chorus or other singing group because they cannot see the beat indicated by conductor’s hand movements. This paper provides a chorus support system for visually impaired persons using depth image sensor. This consists of an electric music baton with an acceleration sensor, a radio module, haptic interface devices with vibration motors, a depth image sensor, and a PC. The electric music baton transmits the signal indicating the conductor’s motion to visually impaired players based on sensor acceleration. Since the conductor must give individual instruction to player, we use a depth image sensor to indicate the direction in which the conductor’s baton points. This direction is estimated based on the conductor’s posture. We also attempted to develop a chorus support system without using the electric music baton. The beat is obtained by the maximum velocity position of the conductor’s hand motion using a depth image sensor. The effectiveness of our system is clarified by several experimental results. </span>

Studies have shown inadequate reading materials for the visually impaired in Nigeria. Information technology has greatly advanced the provision of information to the visually impaired in other industrialized climes. This study investigated the extent of application of information technology to the transcription of reading materials for the visually impaired in Nigeria. The study adopted survey research design of the ex-post facto to select 470 personnel as respondents. A questionnaire titled Information Technology Use Scale (α=0.74), and Interview Schedule (α=0.75), were used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson Product Moment Correlation. The findings indicate that information technology in transcription was low and a significant positive relationship between application of information technology and transcription of information materials (r=0.62: p<0.05). The study recommended among others that Multi-National Corporations should be sensitized to extend their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities to help in procuring modern information technology devices and software to enhance transcription.
