Science communication design in science museums for hearing impaired people

本研究的目的是从通用设计的角度出发，在科学博物馆中为听障人士创建一个展览支持设计，并基于此设计开发和评估一个展览支持系统。开发的系统使用激光来提供增强现实。该系统在一家科学博物馆进行了一项实验，使用健康的参与者，证实了它在改善展览方面的有效性，例如通过激发对展品的兴趣和促进对展品的更好理解。该试验提供的经验数据将对今后实际启动该系统有用。

The purpose of this research was, from the standpoint of universal design, to create an exhibition support design in science museums for hearing impaired people and to develop and evaluate an exhibition support system based on this design. The system that was developed uses lasers to provide augmented reality. An experimental trial of the system in a science museum using healthy participants confirmed its effectiveness at improving the exhibition, such as by stimulating interest in and promoting better understanding of the exhibits. The trial provided empirical data that will be useful in practically launching the system in the future.
