Abstract
Actualmente existen numerosas enfermedades con las que el ser humano tiene que lidiar. Algunas de estas enfermedades generan una discapacidad seria en la persona en cuestión, a veces intelectual y otras veces física. Estas discapacidades suponen barreras constantes en el día a día de la persona afectada, ya no solo a nivel personal sino también al relacionarse con otras personas.
Para cubrir las necesidades comunicativas de las personas con discapacidad se inventaron los Sistemas Aumentativos y Alternativos de Comunicación (SAAC), que sin
hacer uso de palabras articuladas son capaces de proporcionar los mecanismos para establecer una comunicación.
El presente proyecto hace frente a un problema de accesibilidad haciendo uso de uno de estos sistemas: los pictogramas. Los pictogramas son imágenes que representan
conceptos de todo tipo independientemente del idioma. Existen varios conjuntos o sistemas de pictogramas que comprenden desde ilustraciones en color o en blanco y
negro, hasta fotografías de objetos concretos o signos del lenguaje de signos.
Por otro lado, vivimos en una sociedad de la información y la comunicación en la que el uso dispositivos electrónicos como smartphones y tablets está cada día más
extendido.
El propósito del presente proyecto es el de desarrollar una aplicación para dispositivos móviles mediante la cual el usuario sea capaz de construir frases usando dichos
pictogramas, ayudándole en dicha tarea a través de un mecanismo de predicción.
Nowadays, there are several diseases that humanity has to deal with. Some of these diseases produce important disabilities, intellectual or physical. These disabilities are recurrent barriers in the daily life of the affected person, not only in a personal level, but when communicating with people as well. The Augmentative and Alternative Communication Systems were created to help these people to communicate. These systems do not use spoken words. Instead they provide different mechanisms to establish a communication. This project faces this accessibility issue using one of these systems: pictograms. Pictograms are images that represent, regardless of the language, all kind of things such as objects, actions or ideas. There are several pictogram systems or sets, which have both color pictograms and black and white pictograms. These sets can also contain pictures of real objects and pictures of the sign language. Besides, we live in a society of information and communication where the use of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets is more extended every day. The purpose of the present project is to develop a mobile application through which the user could create sentences using pictograms. This application would help the user to create these sentences using a predictive mechanism.
