“…By converting spoken human language into written text or translating it into specific actions. The ASR technology heavily relies on complex algorithms and machine learning (ML) methods to accurately decipher spoken words and interpret their intended meaning [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. With its ability to understand and respond to human speech, VRT opens up a world of possibilities for hands-free communication in several industries [17].…”

The development of humanitarian assistance applications has revolutionized business efficiency and daily convenience. Voice recognition technology (VRT), with its improved accuracy, has found extensive use in various fields, including assistance programs for individuals with disabilities or limited mobility in vehicles, homes, and websites. The authors have developed "Asis_Webmail," a computer application (PC-App) written in Python, to enhance the accessibility and usability of Webmail for Arabic-speaking seniors and physically disabled employees. The application allows users to navigate the webmail interface using Arabic Voice Commands (AVC), promoting independence and functionality in their daily lives. The effectiveness of "Asis_Webmail" was assessed through a survey of disabled employees, who reported finding the application useful and mentioning improved interaction with their email interface. Ultimately, this application aims to empower Arabic-speaking individuals, regardless of mobility disability levels, to independently use the Webmail interface using AVC, thereby promoting independence in both social and functional aspects of their lives.

This review research paper provides an analysis of the current state of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) and User Experience (UX) in the context of smart robotic wheelchairs. It explores the advancements in HRI techniques, including multimodal interfaces, gesture recognition, voice commands, and brain-computer interfaces, and evaluates their impact on user experience factors such as usability, learnability, efficiency, and satisfaction. The paper discusses the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning in enhancing HRI capabilities and personalization of wheelchair behavior. The review highlights gaps in current research and identifies future directions to improve the immersive experience of smart wheelchair users. Overall, this comprehensive review contributes to a deeper understanding of the factors influencing user acceptance, satisfaction, and system performance, guiding the development of more intuitive and user-centered smart robotic wheelchairs for individuals with mobility impairments.
