Abstract
More science and social researchers have advocated to use the high-tech to support the persons with special needs. Since the early 2010s, the design research team of the Public Design Lab has put effort to conduct in-depth qualitative studies on the needs of visually impaired persons (VIPs) in their daily lives. The team has worked with VIPs to propose some “creative” ideas to support their needs. Moreover, by exploring the recent front-end technological advancements, the team has advocated possibilities of AI technology to be included in the “design” of daily objectives for VIPs. By using persona method and case study, the team facilitate the VIPs to propose a model which is based on the current known AI technology to assist them to carry out the recycling practice independently. The model is expected to be possible to be applied in other daily needs of VIPs as well as other persons with special needs.
