This paper presents an alternative approach to measure impact, combining indexes that are already stablish to elicit objectives (Objective Key Results, known as OKRs) achievement, user satisfaction (Net Promoter Score;or NPS) and return of investment (social return of investment;SROI). Calculation plots the design in a 9-matrix grid, each one representing a level of impact and pointing ways of improvement. Besides presenting details of what we are calling Conceicao Moura Impact Index (CMII), we also share the results of the first pilot;an experiment conducted in a five-year-old project called iCANamy, and more specifically its program for teachers.
In this paper, a human–computer interface system using eye motion is implemented. In traditional methods, human–computer interfaces use keyboard, mouse as input devices. A hand-free interface between computer and hu...

Executive functions are complex, high-level mental abilities associated with the frontal lobe brain function. These skills have been described as the inhibitory control ability, working memory, cognitive flexibility, planning, monitoring, among others. One of the most important skills of executive functioning is the ability to control behavior and cognition. Its adequate stimulation level is key to this process, highlighting the importance of generating motivational elements for the work and development of these mental skills, as proposed in the context of technological development. In this context, this article proposes a review of the main technological innovations that are currently available for stimulation.

This study aimed to understand the influence of various information acquisition strategies on foot proprioceptive and obstacle avoidance patterns among individuals with pigmentary retinal degeneration. Ten adult males (age: 39.2 +/- 7.9 years) with pigmentary retinal degeneration were recruited. Participants obtained obstacle information (height of obstacle: 4 cm, 12 cm, 20 cm) using four information acquisition strategies, namely: visual: straight view in front of the block (condition A), verbal: information about the height of the block (condition B), tactile: identifying the block by hand with no time limit (condition C), and a combination of verbal and tactile stimuli (condition D). They were further evaluated by the following tasks: task 1, participants reproduced the height of the obstacles by lifting their foot in a static standing posture after they recognized the height of the obstacles;task 2, After the participants acquired obstacle information in conditions A to D, they performed an obstacle step-over from a free position from where it was possible to finish the task with one step. In task 1, under conditions A and B, they showed higher toe rise and higher coefficient of variance in toe rise compared to that under conditions C and D. For task 2, the highest points of the leading and trailing feet while stepping over the obstacle were significantly higher in condition A. Our results showed that the tactile method was useful to improve the perception of the participants caused by the lack of visual information about the obstacle.

Software developers commonly use open source libraries, known as "software dependencies", to build their applications to faster development of larger software applications. One way to track software dependencies is to use tools designed for just that purpose. Dependence vulnerability analyzers evaluate software dependency versions and compare them against lists of known vulnerabilities. This research will evaluate these tools by comparing the ease of installation and configuration, simplicity of keeping them up to date, readability of their reports, and ability to have them run automatically against a codebase. Finally, we will also compare the scan results of them.

This paper provides a comparative study between problems caused by cybersickness with users in virtual environments, and the studies on the influence of the optical aspects of the image via its levels of contrasts in the quality of the user experience in virtual environments. This article was organized in two parts, the first consists of surveying the results obtained in each research and the second has the objective of crossing these data and verifying the level of relationship between research on cybersickness and studies on the influence of optical aspects quality of the user experience. The results indicate relevant connection with the results of studies on cybersickness. With that, we conclude that in future research researchers can produce much more relevant results in the solution of persistent problems from the negative experience with virtual devices.
