Guante multifunción con entorno virtual inmersivo y comunicación háptica para personas con discapacidad visual

Abstract

This project proposes the design and development of a multifunctional glove that integrates haptic technology and an immersive virtual environment aimed at improving autonomy and inclusion for individuals with visual impairments. The glove allows users to receive real-time tactile feedback while interacting with a virtual environment, facilitating navigation and learning. The methodology includes the following development phases: establishing initial parameters, design proposal, simulation, implementation, and evaluation. The results showed that the glove is effective in enhancing spatial perception and independence in users with visual impairments, particularly in educational applications. The project aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 4, by promoting inclusive education.
