主　　题：Handicapped persons 

摘      要：Employment assurance is very important problem. Particular measures are necessary in case of disabled people. Application of technology to assist people with handicaps is now commonplace. The level of technology employed varies considerably as do the range of applications for which it is used. It is nonetheless fact that full potential of technical assistance tools has not been fully realized;not due to lack of technical genius to develop devices, but rather because of less than adequate service delivery structures. This was recognized some years ago and led to many research projects designed to identify the best practice and to propose new services where necessary. Evaluation of required equipment and services has now been performed and recommendations have been given.
