Erasmus + Cooperation partnership in Higher Education: “ISENSE-Innovative supporting services for university students with deafness”

The project aims at implementing supporting services, to be understood as both digital tools and innovative good practices, based on higher technologies, such as augmented reality and interactive holograms to assist the students with deafness during their academic life, especially focusing on the university orientation. In addition, a set of guidelines to support these students during the stage of enrolment and study, as well as for the entry into employment will be defined.

The Mediterranean University of Albania has the role as an Associate Partner.

Project outputs:

1. SLAATE – Sign Language in Augmentative Alternative Technical 3D Environment

SLAATE is an ICT platform that permits the realization of web-based video to interact with deaf students during the enrolment phase by using holographic approach.

2. SHARE SLANG- SHAring REpository of Sign LANguage Gesture

This output is a public database containing data of the gesture related to sign language in terms of movement analysis file acquired by using optoeletrconic system.

3. SONAR – SOcial iNclusion through Augmented Reality

This outcome concerns the realization of specific training path for professors, technicians, familiar and friend aiming at learning the sign language

4. GUI4DE- GUIdelines FOR DEaf

This output will represent the summary of all the findings obtained during the development of the project, leading to the implementation of a memorandum of understanding containing all the guidelines and best practices to guarantee an equal education characterized by a high level of accessibility to students with deafness.
