Peter Borden Gregg V anderheiden Produced at the Trace R&D Center Waisman Center, University of Wisconsin- Madison in cooperation with RESNA - Association for the Advancement of Rehabilitation Technology Work leading to this book was funded in part by the National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research, U.S. Department of Education, Grant Number G008300045. 6 Preface: How to Use this Book Overview The application of technology in theareas of augmentative communication, special education and rehabilitation is continually growing and changing.Private industries and public research institutions are always seeking new ways of addressing the specialneeds of elderly people and people with disabilities. Fortunately, their work has borneconsiderable fruit. Unfortunately, it can be a bewildering task to keep track of what has been developed. This book is for anyone who needs to know "what'sout there": people with disabilities, parents, rehabilitation professionals, educators, administrators, therapists.The intent of the Rehab /Education Resource Book Series is to helpyou understand and be able to locate useful tools quickly and efficiently, so you can devoteyour time and energy to applying them successfully. This volume lists products pertaining to communication, control,and computer access, as well as special software. For each product we have provideda vendor's name, a few basic facts about it, a photograph (if available and relevant), and a short description. This is a Companion Volume A year has passed since the publication of the first edition (Volumes1-3) of the Rehab /Education Resource Book Series, and the quantity of products available for communication,control, and computer access continues to grow. This volume is an update to the first threevolumes, containing only products that were not listed in last year'sbooks. Some were developed and put on the market during the past year, others were around before butwe have only recently learned of their existence. This update covers all of the types of products thatwere listed in all three of the previous volumes. The chapter titles are also thesame and the chapters appear in the same order, although in this volume they are numbered straight throughfrom 1 to 22. This Book Includes Special Devices and Software Like Volumes 1-3, this ResourceBook lists products designed specificallyfor the needs of people with disabilities or elderly people. We recognize that thereare a large number of products designed for the general public that can be useful to people withdisabilities or elderly people. We cannot list these due to the volume of material theyrepresent. The one exception to this rule is in the area of productseither hardwareor softwarewhich provide access to computers (Chapters 10 - 17). Some were designed for non-disabledcomputer users but provide a clear enough advantage to certain disabled computerusers that we have decided to include them in the ResourceBook. What You'll Find in this Book Each section of this book contains products designed for different basicpurposes. Part 1 covers "communication." This includes products primarily designedas aids to communication, both electronic and non-electronic. It includes aids that supplement speechor replace speech, as well as products that help with the process of non-speech communication. Some products in Parts 2 and 3 can aid in this process as well (you can find these using the "Special Indexes" described below). ResourceBook 4: Update to Books 1, 2, and 3 vii 7 Preface: How to Use this Book Part 2 covers "control." It includes special switcheswhich can be used to control many of the products in all three parts of the bookplus environmental controls and calling devices. Part 3 covers "computer access." Chapters 10 - 17 lisi products which provide disabled people with access to computers. Chapters 18 - 22 list special software written specifically for the needs of disabled people. Be sure to check the title page of each chapter for an explanation of what types of products are in that chapter. Special Indexes Help You Find Products that Meet Special Needs Indexes 1-6 in the back of this book are designed to help you in your search for products that meet specific needs.

    Guide for Identifying Mercury Switches/Thermostats in Common Appliances Prepared by: Jim Giordani, Burlington Board of Health, Revised 12/27/00 Contact Todd Dresser for Further information at (781) 270-1956 - 1 - Guide for Identifying Mercury Switches/Thermostats In Common Appliances This reference contains guidance for responding to a mercury spill, and how to recycle mercury bearing products. This document also contains specific recommendations for the following types of products: batteries, fluorescent lights, high intensity discharge lamps (HID) lamps, ballasts, thermostats, switches, float switches, sump pumps, silent light switches, washing machines, tilt switches, freezers, flow meters, manometers, barometers, vacuum gauges, flame sensors on gas appliances, rubber flooring containing mercury, and mercury accumulation in sanitary drains. This reference also contains a general checklist of products found to routinely contain mercury. Mercury is a dangerous element in the environment today. It can cause serious health problems such as neurological and kidney damage. Mercury is found in many products that end up in landfills and incinerators allowing the mercury to re-enter the environment and pollute drinking water and contaminate the food chain. The following information is a helpful guide to identify products that contain mercury switches and thermostats. This guide describes where mercury switches and thermostats are located and how to remove and dispose of these properly. Mercury bearing articles should not be thrown in the trash, and serious care should be taken when dealing with this element. Safe Disposal · Store mercury thermostats and switches in a suitable sturdy, sealed container. A five gallon plastic bucket with a lid may work. · Each container must be labeled "Mercury Thermostats or Switches/Universal Waste." · Be careful to keep the devices from breaking and releasing mercury into the environment.

Tiivistelmä Tämän opinnäytetyön aiheena oli sijaintipohjaiset mobiilipelit. Sijaintipohjaiset mobiili- pelit ovat pelien tapa yhdistää oikea maailma virtuaalisen maailman kanssa ja täten ne luovat yhdessä aivan uuden pelikokemuksen. Tämä tutkimus syventyi teknologiaan ja työkaluihin, joilla kehitetään sijaintipohjaisia pelejä. Näihin sisältyy esimerkiksi GPS ja Bluetooth. Samalla työssä myös tutustuttiin yleisesti sijaintipohjaisten pelien ominaisuuksiin. Melkein kaikki tekniset ratkaisut, jotka oli esitetty opinnäytetyössä, olivat Moomin Move peliprojektin teknisiä ratkaisuja. Opinnäytetyön tuloksena tuli lisää mahdolli- suuksia kehittää Moomin Move pelin sijaintipohjaisia ominaisuuksia, kuten tuomalla kamerapohjaisia sijaintitekniikoita.

  • How Reed Relays Work Dry Reed Relays Mercury-Wetted Contact
    resistance is very low and idea for low level switching How Reed Relays work applications. The item reed relay covers dry reed relays and mercury-wetted contact relays, all of which use hermetically sealed reed switches. In both types, the reeds (thin, flat blades) serve multiple functions – as conductor, contacts, springs, and magnetic armatures. Dry Reed Relays Dry reed relays have become an important factor in the relay field. They have the advantage of being hermetically sealed and resistant to atmospheric contamination. They have fast operate and release times and when operated within their rated contact loads, have very long life. A typical dry reed switch capsule is shown in Figure 1. The disadvantages of this type of reed relay are the freezing point of mercury (-38 ° C), poor resistance to shock and vibration and the need to mount the relay in a near vertical position. These relays are used for a variety of switching applications such as found in computers, business machines, machine tool In the basic SPST-NO design, two opposing blades are sealed control systems, and laboratory instruments. into narrow glass capsule and overlapped at their free ends.

  • Teletypewriter Communication Codes
    Teletypewriter Communication Codes Gil Smith [email protected] 2001 (Document Notes) Abstract Preliminary -- 5/01 gil smith Corrections or comments to [email protected] This information is pulled from a variety of sources, such as various emails of the greenkeys group. For more discussion of teletypewriter code development, see: http://www.nadcomm.com/fiveunit/fiveunits.htm http://fido.wps.com/texts/codes/index.html http://www.science.uva.nl/faculteit/museum/DWcodes.html FIVE-UNIT CODES: USTTY and ITA2 (aka BAUDOT) There were a few variations in character codes for five-level teletypewriter machines. The two most-common character codes were ITA2 and USTTY (a variation of ITA2). The USTTY and ITA2 5-level teletypewriter codes are commonly referred to as "Baudot" codes. While this is technically incorrect, these popular 5-level codes evolved from the work of Jean Maurice Emile Baudot of France - - it seems fitting to accept the defacto reference to "Baudot" as implying USTTY or ITA2 codes, since they were the 5-level codes that saw practical use in teletypewriter systems. However, the true Baudot code dates to around 1874, when Baudot designed the "Baudot Multiplex System," a printing telegraph. The system used a 5-level code generated by a device with five keys, operated with two left-hand fingers, and three right-hand fingers -- this required great skill on the part of the operator who entered the code directly. However, it was still a major improvement in communications -- prior to Baudot's design, communication was carried out using Morse code with a telegraph key. The 5-level "Baudot" code was actually designed by Johann Gauss and Wilhelm Weber.
