Penilaian analisis keperluan kepada penggunaan bahasa isyarat bagi Orang Kurang Upaya (OKU) kategori masalah pendengaran

Bahasa isyarat menjadi bahasa komunikasi utama Orang Kurang Upaya (OKU) kategori kurang pendengaran bagi berurusan dengan manusia normal. Walaupun ramai manusia normal ingin berkomunikasi dengan OKU kurang pendengaran, namun disebabkan kurang kemahiran dalam berbahasa isyarat menyukarkan mereka untuk berkongsi maklumat diantara satu sama lain. OKU kurang pendengaran perlu membuat temu janji terlebih dahulu dengan Jurubahasa Isyarat (JBI) apabila ingin menggunakan perkhidmatan penterjemah. Jika di sektor pejabat awam pula, kebiasannya amat sukar bagi golongan ini untuk berkomunikasi, apatah lagi apabila melibatkan urusan rasmi dan kebajikan. Di luar negara, urusan seperti pentadbiran, keagamaan dan papan tanda di jalan raya telah mengadaptasi bahasa isyarat untuk memudahkan OKU kurang pendengaran. Justeru itu, kajian awal ini akan mengenalpasti tahap keperluan dan penggunaan bahasa isyarat di Terengganu agar permasaalahan OKU kurang pendengaran dapat diatasi. Kaedah analisis regrasi digunakan bagi mengetahui kekuatan hubungan diantara keperluan dengan penggunaan di dalam kajian ini. Seramai sembilan belas responden yang terdiri daripada ahli Persatuan Orang Pekak Terengganu (POPT) telah dipilih bagi menguji instrument kajian. Hasil kajian menunjukkan, hubungan dari kedua-dua pembolehubah iaitu keperluan dengan penggunaan adalah signifikan dengan nilai R² 0.624 (62.4%). Hasil kajian juga menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang positif diantara keperluan dengan penggunaan bahasa isyarat bagi kalangan OKU kurang pendengaran. Kesimpulannya, hasil kajian ini boleh dijadikan rujukan utama bagi pihak berkepentingan dalam mengaplikasikan dan mempertingkatkan lagi keperluan dan penggunaan bahasa isyarat, agar ianya bukan sahaja diketahui oleh golongan OKU kurang pendengaran tetapi juga manusia normal. Hal ini penting bagi memudahkan komunikasi OKU dalam melengkapkan kefungsian sosial mereka

Development of GIS spatial models on critical place needed of Malaysia Sign Language (MSL) for Persons with Disabilities (PWDS) deaf in Terengganu, Malaysia

Sign language is the priority of communication language between normal and deaf person. Usually normal person tries to communicate with the deaf but due to the absence of knowledge about the sing language making it difficult for them. Before getting a translator, deaf people have to do an appointment with sign language interpreter first. Then, looking at the public officer sector it is also one of the problems for deaf when they try communicating and making an appointment. At the abroad things like administration, religion or traffic signboard they already use the sign language for deaf to facilitate in daily life. The study will analyse the use and requirements of sign language in Terengganu. Geography Information System (GIS) aims to development the spatial models of critical place at Kuala Terengganu that really need a sign language. Before doing GIS Analysis, the study collected data about the percentage needed from respondent and coordinate of critical place in Kuala Terengganu. Respondents are the members of Terengganu Deaf Association will respond to the questionnaire. Based on the study, the regression findings show there are strong and significant between the two variables which is the use and requirements of sign language with value of R2 0.624 (62.4%). The researcher also found that there is positive relationship between these two variables. In the spatial models finding by GIS, Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah (HSNZ) had been selected as the main critical place that really need to use of sign language from the respondent. It is hoped that this finding can assist the government to apply in each place and at the same time can recover deaf person in social functionality

Assessment of hydrological inspection using development low-cost boat application in University Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSza) Lake, Terengganu, Malaysia

Unmanned vehicles may provide less time consume and cost-effective methods of gathering hydrographic survey data compared to traditional, manned survey vessels. A remote-controlled Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) was outfitted with range finder, depth transducer, and velocity current meter for the purpose of conducting a hydro survey. The purpose of study to describes a project for the development of Unmanned Survey Vessel (USV) platform useful for hydrological survey. The control unit includes a motor control system, communication equipment, and a simple radio control system installed to enables an operator to remotely control the boat. The motor radio control system, the measurement equipment (sonar depth, current meter, range finder) used in data collecting activities. The result showed the validation values of Hydro Survey Boat Version 1 and Hydro Survey Boat Version 2, the estimated validation of river discharge (Q) recorded 0.0373 m3/s. The significant differences of Q between Hydro Survey Boat Version 1 as 0.0853 m3/s (56.3%) and Hydro Survey Boat Version 2 as 0.042 m3/s (11.2%) which is the Hydro Survey Boat Version 2 recorded more accurate readings compared Hydro Survey Boat Version 1. There are several advantages of this project which is reducing cost, improve efficiency, and reduce risk during hydrology survey. The development survey boat USV is innovation technology and it will improved the hydrological method
