- A very warm welcome from Angelina, our Summer School organizational talent
- Angelina Kratschanova, who is the organizational talent behind the Summer School
- Traditional viennese pastries sweetens the official Summer School Opening
- Chris Veigl and Beni Aigner from the AsTeRICS Academy Team giving an overview about the Summer School Program
- Benjamin Aigner explains the Hardware tools which will be used in the practical courses in the Summer School
- Of course, W-Lan is essential nowadays - Chris Veigl has always the right passwords for the students
- Guest lecturer Therese Willkomm speaks very enthusiastically about Assistive Technology solutions in minutes
- Guest lecturer Therese Willkomm shows how to communicate via an easy to made tablet-based Avatar
- In course of Therese Willkomms lesson the students make easy DIY-buttons with cardboard and conductive material
- In the Hands-on part of Therese Willkomms lesson every student gets material to build own low-tech assistive tools
- Chris Veigl explaing the AsTeRICS system to build individual assistive technology solutions
- The AsTeRICS system in action. With the AsTeRICS system one can build own individual, flexible assistive solutions
- In course of Chris Veigls lesson the students learn to handle the AsTeRICS program
- Guest lecturer Daniel Sturmair speaks about Alternative Augmentative Communication methods
- Guest lecturer Daniel Sturmair presents a Alternative Augmentative Communication system, which can be tried out by the students
- Guest lecturer Steve Lee speaking about open accessibility and a framework for creating simple HTML apps
- Guest lecturer Shadi Abou Zahra presenting basics and evaluation tools of web accessibility
- Guest lecturer Shadi Abou Zahra presenting basics and evaluation tools of web accessibility
- Guest lecturer Gerhard Nussbaum talking about Game Accessibility
- Guest lecturer Gerhard Nussbaum shows by himself what "Game Accessibility" really means and is controlling a quadcopter with a 4D joystick
- 30 international exellent students with different backgrounds had a great part in the success of the Summer School 2015
- 30 international students with different backgrounds had a great part in the success of the Summer School 2015
- Hands-on is an important part of this Summer School - thus much material for DIY projects is needed
- Electronical parts and a robotic hand from former students project were availabe for Assistive Technolgy projects
- Almost the whole group took part in the Vienna City Walk. In this photo they are standing in front of the Vienna Hofburg
- A group of summer school students walking in the inner city of Vienna (in front of the famous Stephansdom)
- Nice ending of the Vienna City walk at the Danube Canal
- Freetime on weekend - Angelina visited with a group of students Schönbrunn Palace
- Freetime on weekend - Angelina visited with a group of students Belvedere Palace
- All parts for building a FLipMouse, which can be done in course of the Summer School
- Soldering electronical parts to the breadboard of a FLipMouse
- For soldering, its useful to have more than two hands - Team work makes it easier
- Soldering electronical parts to build a FLipMouse
- The students were very skillful in soldering and building a FLipMouse
- One piece of the inner life of a FlipMouse is ready - this is the plate with small pressure sensors to detect movements of the joystick
- The inner life of a FlipMouse, built during the Summer School students project
- Sophie is the first who tries out the newly built FLipMouse and controls her PC with it.
- An example of accessible gaming - with the FLipMouse (orange) one can control the PC game by just using his lips
- Biosignals are also good alternative input signals for assistive technology solutions.
- One student group developed a grid to control the radio with alternative input signals
- Although it looks like a LAN-party, the students developing assistive technoloy solutions with AsTeRICS
- Students learning how to use a microcontroller for Assistive Technology solutions
- These students connect this robotic hand with the AsTeRICS system
- One student developed an alternative PC input with eye and blink detektion (via webcam)
- Teamwork during project phase can be fun!
- This group developed an aid for visual impaired people. Via infrared obstacles are detected and taktile signals are given to the user.
- During final presentations the students tried out the developed aid for visual impaired which is detecting obstacles wia infrared and returns taktile feedback to the user.
- This group showed their setup with different alternativ input solutions like simple buttons mounted on the height of the head.
- The connection of the robotic hand to the AsTeRICS system worked perfektly, thus this hand could be controlled with any accessible input solution.
- The ulitmative test of the FLipMice built during the project phase. The students played in multiplayer modus a racing game - all controlled with the FLipMouse.
- For the closing ceremony the inclusive band "AsTeRICS and the Toilers of Tune" had a gig at the University of Applied Sciences.
- For the closing ceremony we could win the inclusive band "AsTeRICS and the Toilers of Tune"
- For the closing ceremony we could win the inclusive band "AsTeRICS and the Toilers of Tune"
- The farewell dinner at the vineyard Zawodsky.
