iOAK uses the camera to visualize the movement of the user and enables them to control switches. Key Functions: - Motion History This function colors the moved body parts with purple, blue, …, and red according to the frequency of the movement. - Air Switches Draw rectangles on the camera screen to serve as non-contact switches, called “Air Switches.” These can be activated by detecting movement within the designated areas. A red circle indicating the magnitude of the detected movement moves left or right along a slider on the screen. When it crosses the position of the sensitivity adjustment knob, a switch signal is output. For switch output integration, the user can select an external switch connected via Bluetooth (such as a "Relay" or the battery-shaped switch "MaBeee"), or the built-in “Home” or “Shortcuts” apps on the iPhone/iPad. - The “Relay” device works with equipment that accepts switch input. - The “MaBeee” device controls battery-operated equipment. - The “Home” app allows control of smart home devices, i.e., smart lights, plugs, and remotes, compatible with "Matter" or "HomeKit". - The “Shortcuts” app allows execution of a series of predefined actions (Shortcuts) on the iPhone or iPad. (*) (*) When linking with the “Shortcuts” app, add the “Open iOAK” action at the end of the registered “Shortcut” (the sequence of actions) so that it automatically returns to “iOAK” operation after executing the Shortcut. Compatible relay products are as follows: - DSD TECH SH-BT01A Bluetooth Module - DSD TECH 2-Channel Bluetooth 4.0 BLE Relay Module - DSD TECH SH-BT04B Bluetooth Module - TinySine TOSR141 - 4 Channel Bluetooth Relay - Switch Science ISP1507 Bluetooth-Relay Board

音声を録音し、再生するアプリです。 1ページ、2ページ、3ページ・・・と各ページが集まって1冊の本になるように、『ぼいすぶっく』では、順番に録音された音声が1つの”こえの本”になります。 録音した音声は、画面いっぱいをスイッチ代わりにして、タップすると再生することができます。タップする以外にもマイクからの音声入力や、外部スイッチ入力にも対応しています。 それぞれの音声には、画像をイラストを割り当てることができます。絵本の朗読を録音し、それに絵本の写真を割り当てれば、簡単な電子絵本の出来上がりです。 他にも、カルタや百人一首の読み札の朗読と絵札、音楽とCDのジャケットなど、アイディア次第で様々な”こえの本”を作成できます。 分かりやすいシンボルとそれに対応したメッセージを録音すれば、コミュニケーションツールとしても使用できます。いくつもの録音を順番に再生できるので、司会進行やごく簡単なプレゼンテーションなど、ある程度決まった内容を再生したい場合に活躍します。 特別支援学校で、現場の教員や子ども達の声を集めながら作り上げてきたアプリです。 ※ このアプリにはバックアップのためのエクスポート機能がありますが、画像・音声・動画に他者の著作物を使用された場合は、著作権者の不利益とならないよう取り扱いには充分なご配慮をお願いします。
