Oralizer prototype for deaf people: project monitoring, tests and case study

This research addresses the topic of inclusion with emphasis on Deaf people, exposing the concept of the application of engineering systems through the design of a voice graphing software developed in LabView® that is used as a practice tool in the oralization process of people born Deaf but with the ability to phonate, which, according to global data, places them at a social, cultural, labor and economic disadvantage. This tool works as a technological support parallel to the therapeutic process carried out by specialists, aiming to provide support that encourages the practice of vocalization and oralization using the software presented in this article. The results collected in this work are the product of a multidisciplinary research that began in 2019, which continues in a complementary process of testing and adjustments according to the observations of users and speech therapists. It is these people together who provide feedback on the design with the aim of obtaining a functional application that seeks to irrigate Technology Applied to Inclusion and Bioinformatics in Educational Institutions and in society in general. The efforts of this research contribute to objectives 3 and 10 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, relating to Health and Well-being and Reduction of Inequalities.
