Digital Twin Smart Educational Platform for Visually Impaired Navigation Training
8. juni 2026 opdateret af: Abdellah Ibrahim Mohammed Elfeky, King Salman Center for Disability Research
A Digital Twin Smart Educational Platform for Simulating Physical Obstacles and Safe Navigation Training for the Saudi Visually Impaired
This study evaluates a novel digital twin smart educational platform designed to train visually impaired individuals on safe navigation in Saudi urban environments.
Independent mobility is challenging for visually impaired people due to dynamic hazards and architectural changes.
This interventional study utilizes an advanced computer simulation (digital twin) modeled after real streets in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Participants are randomly assigned to either the experimental group (receiving training via the adaptive digital twin platform with 3D spatial audio and wearable haptic feedback) or the control group (receiving traditional orientation and mobility instruction).
The training consists of 10 structured sessions over 5 weeks.
The primary goal is to determine…

Detaljeret beskrivelse
The purpose of this study is to examine the engineering validity and pedagogical efficacy of the Adaptive Multi-modal Reality Learning Environment (AMRLE) for visually impaired orientation and mobility (O&M) training.
The platform features a three-tier architecture: Data Acquisition Tier: Utilizing Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) and LiDAR point clouds to generate high-fidelity 3D environments compliant with the Saudi Building Code (SBC 201) universal access standards.
Processing Tier: Running a custom 3D simulation engine embedded with an AI-driven adaptive algorithm.
The algorithm dynamically adjusts environmental complexity and obstacle density based on the user's real-time collision metrics and path deviation speeds.
Human Interaction Tier: Delivering sensory...

|---|---|
|
Eksperimentel: Experimental: AMRLE Group
Participants assigned to this group will undergo orientation and mobility (O&M) training within the Adaptive Multi-modal Reality Learning Environment (AMRLE) powered by a dynamic Digital Twin simulation engine.
Over a 5-week curriculum comprising 10 structured sessions (25 minutes per session), trainees interact with virtual replicas of real-world Saudi urban layouts.
The system delivers non-visual feedback using low-latency 3D spatial binaural audio and localized directional haptic/vibrotactile device telemetry.
An AI-driven optimization model automatically scales environmental complexity and obstacle generation based on real-time participant performance loops.
|
A structured 10-session orientation and mobility (O&M) curriculum distributed over 5 weeks (2 sessions/week, 25 minutes/session).
The intervention leverages a dynamic digital twin simulation engine of Saudi urban spaces to proactively train visually impaired users on hazard mitigation.
Trainees navigate via non-visual multi-modal feedback loops: 3D spatialized binaural audio (HRTF) pings indicating structural pathways, combined with directional haptic/vibrotactile vest telemetry for real-time proximity boundaries.
An AI optimization model continuously adjusts environmental complexity and obstacle generation (static, semi-dynamic, and crowded scenarios) matching the real-time collision metrics of the participant to prevent learning plateaus and optimize cognitive mapping.

Aktiv komparator: Active Control: Conventional O&M Group
Participants assigned to this control group will undergo standard, conventional orientation and mobility (O&M) rehabilitation instructions.
Over a 5-week period consisting of 10 structured training sessions (25 minutes per session), trainees practice navigation along fixed real-world paths using traditional white canes.
The instruction relies entirely on conventional tactile maps, physical paving cues, and static verbal orientation scripts provided by an O&M instructor.
No virtual reality simulators, adaptive AI algorithms, or high-fidelity digital twin interventions are utilized.
