“…Regardless of the accurate and precise numerical and flow properties result presented by the CFD result and experimental result, the accuracy and precision of the augmented environment could be enhanced with the user-defined script module provided by Unity. More information on the implementation of AR application in an education sector can be found in Al-Megren and Almutairi (2019b;2019a), Alkhattabi (2017), and Bistaman et al (2018). properties result presented by the CFD result and experimental result, the accuracy and precision of the augmented environment could be enhanced with the user-defined script module provided by Unity.…”

The behaviour of fluid flow is a complex paradigm for cognitive interpretation and visualisation. Engineers need to visualise the behaviour mechanics of flow field response in order to enhance the cognitive ability in problem solving. Therefore, mixed reality related technology is the solution for enhanced virtual interactive learning environment. However, there are limited augmented reality platforms on fluid flow interactive learning. Therefore, an interactive education application is proposed for students and engineers to interact and understand the complex flow behaviour pattern subjected to elementary geometry body relative to external flow. This paper presented the technical development of a real-time flow response visualisation augmented reality application for computational fluid dynamics application. It was developed with the assistance of several applications such as Unity, Vuforia, and Android. Particle system modules available in the Unity engine were used to create a two-dimensional flow stream domain. The flow visualisation and interaction were limited to two-dimensional and the numerical fluid continuum response was not analysed. The physical flow response pattern of three simple geometry bodies was validated against ANSYS simulated results based on visual empirical observation. The particle size and number of particles emitted were adjusted in order to emulate the physical representation of fluid flow. Colour contour was set to change according to fluid velocity. Visual validation indicated trivial dissimilarities between FLUENT generated results and flow response exhibited by the proposed augmented reality application.

New technologies such as Augmented Reality can be used to enhance the possibility of obtaining new experiences to assist people with special needs. However, in the literature, there are not enough studies conducted on the use of Augmented Reality as an assistive technology, especially for people with special needs. The purpose of this study is to highlight the use of Augmented Reality technology on people with special needs for skill development. This systematic literature review includes recent and high-quality articles from chosen prestige databases between the years 2010 and 2020. The selected studies which fitted the eligibility selection criteria have been analyzed and synthesized. The study findings reveal the importance of using AR technology to assist individuals with special needs in their skill development process, to help them become more independent. We hope this study will enlighten researchers and the developers of AR tools. It has been recommended that more studies be done on the sustainable use of AR as an assistive technology, particularly for children with special needs, to make their life easier.

“…In recent years, researchers have often investigated how to design a context in which DHH students, of any age, can follow mainstream classes as well as hearing students (Almutairi & Al-Megren, 2017;Al-Megren & Almutairi, 2019;Deb et al, 2018;Ioannou & Constantinou, 2018;Miller et al, 2017;Parton, 2017). As mentioned in the introductive section of this article, DHH students are considered visual learners: for them, images and gestures -sign language -assume a stronger meaning rather than written text.…”

“…Almutairi and Al-Megren conducted a research to understand what kind of stimuli (sign language, pictures, videos, fingerspelling) are useful for DHH Arab children's literacy development. In 2017 the preliminary studies were published, while in 2019 the authors revealed a more complete collection of the results, underlying first of all the importance that exists in integrating several stimuli during the learning process, and consequently their design of an AR application to aid DHH Arab children in their linguistic development (Almutairi & Al-Megren, 2017;Al-Megren & Almutairi, 2019).…”

A surdez é um problema muitas vezes desvalorizado, mas crescente entre a população mundial. Além da dificuldade em ouvir sons, envolve problemas cognitivos e emocionais, como dificuldades de aprendizagem, isolamento e incapacitação. Neste artigo, o design aplicado à surdez é analisado sob duas perspectivas diferentes: a tecnologia e as ciência da comunicação. Em relação às questões técnicas, a investigação mostra como a Realidade Aumentada pode ser aplicada através de interfaces ou óculos inteligentes que transformam os sons em estímulos visuais; do ponto de vista da comunicação, o foco está na narração de histórias e como estas podem ser articuladas com a tecnologia mencionada para envolver as pessoas, aprimorando as atividades de aprendizagem e a ligação com a comunidade. Analizando esses dois aspectos, a abordagem aqui sugerida é juntá-los num projeto conceptual criativo que possa ser atraente e útil ao público, por meio da utilização de histórias interativas, ao mesmo tempo que é aproveitado os benefícios visuais de uma experiência imersiva com a Realidade Aumentada.
