V.A.A.S Technology
V.A.A.S stands for Vibration Assisted Alert System.
The devices that we encounter these days such
as door bells ,smoke/fire detectors ,Telephones
and alarms capture our attention through
sound.
Ever thought of what a deaf person might do in
these situations?
Problems encountered by
deaf people
Apart from disability of hearing ,Deaf people face a lot of
problem in day to day life such as-
1.Not getting announcement at public places.
2.Communication in the dark is next to impossible.
3. Constantly Jumpy, As they Never Know When Someone Is
Approaching them From Behind.
4.rely on touch to get attention of others.
5.Sign language- not universal and can be misunderstood
easily.
6. Looking After Hearing Aids Takes A Lot Of Maintenance
Vibration assisted alerting
technology.
One of the simplest technology used to provide deaf
people with an alert that a sound is present within their
vicinity.
V.A.A.S gadgets can signal your attention and/or
indicate the presence of sounds in the environment
through one of three ways: providing a louder sound (for
people who are hard of hearing), providing a light flash,
or causing a tactile vibration
V.A.A.S devices for deaf
pedestrian
Deaf people are prone to accidents because of being unaware of
speeding vehicles or any dangers of traffic.
Statistics show that in 2013, there were 1.25 million road traffic deaths
globally.(source:WikiPedia) amongst which involved nearly 15% of people
being deaf.

Speedster Alert Device


Uses microphone and a microcontroller and a vibrating
device to enable deaf person to become aware of
environment he is in.

MICROPHONE DECIBEL ADJUSTER ARDUINO MC OSCILLATOR


Working of speedster alert
device
The user attaches the microphone to his collar.
Range of sound for which user has to be alerted is set using decibel
adjuster .
Upon receiving screeching and revving sounds by a speeding vehicle the
microphone sends the received sound to Arduino .
This Microcontroller upon command code triggers the mechanical
oscillator .
So the user to whose wrist the oscillator is attached is vibrated ,thereby
alerting him of the surroundings
Other uses of this tech.
Can be used in Train stations and airports so that upon
vibration the person gets alert regarding a speedy train
or announcement about flight arrival.
this device gives the ability for deaf people to receive
phone calls
Alarm
Answer Door when door bell rings.
To help a person to know if the child/baby is crying.
to know if the fire alarm/smoke alarm is triggered etc.
Advantages of this device.
Almost acts as hearing aid.
Component costs way lesser than traditional
hearing device
VAAS device-(Rs.1200/- approx.)
Traditional Hearing device-Rs.9000 (Unitron shine
Bte hearing aid device).
Allows deaf people to react to any potential
danger.
Thank You for listening
