Requirements Engineering Fall 2010

Purpose Address the problems that people

face as they age Bring efficiency, portability, and

reliability to the customer Assist with: vision, hearing, memory

loss, speech and medical devices

Vision

Magnifies objects and displays them on the screen so they can be large enough to be seen

Hearing For customers with

difficulty hearing, our application translates speech captured on the device’s microphone and displays it as text on the screen

Memory Loss Scheduling

• Taking medications• Reminders

Memory Game• Match pictures with

text

Speech

Speaks the text on the screen so the user can convey audible messages to other people if they have difficulty speaking

Medical Devices If a device that a

user is dependant on has a critical message, it can be transferred to our application for further evaluation

Depth of Change The project can administer a change

of up to 10% total to any specific section without  resulting in vague or excessive implications.

Why our project is the best Our group has excellent communications skills and

team work that allows us to successfully perform and complete tasks.

Our device shall be easily accessible to the elderly to efficiently carry out basic daily activities.

We have an application that allows the user to quickly contact help via a single touch button.

The variety of applications we have designed caters to most disabilities that an elderly experiences.

The team’s organizational and planning tactics to draw out requirements and specification for the HOPE systems allow for a tentative implementation of a prototype of the system.
