Project Approach
The majority of insulin pumps currently available on the market pose a great concern for the visually impaired, lacking communication between the device and the user. Many of the diabetics with sight disabilities rely on memory and or assistance to navigate throughout the pumps many menus and options. Due to this unresolved problem that affects nearly 5 million diabetics, the team must design an insulin pump’s user interface that communicates the necessary information to the user through audio commands. Thus, allowing the visually disabled the convenience to operate their pump independently and accurately.
