Technology, Access, and Deaf Experience 1 / 10What best explains the value of advanced visual-tactile technology for Deaf users? It replaces all other accessibility tools It transforms sound information into structured visual or tactile patterns that users learn to interpret It amplifies environmental signals through vibration It removes the need for visual attention in public spaces 2 / 10Why do haptic devices often become more effective the longer they are used? The hardware automatically upgrades itself Users develop skill in recognising vibration patterns over time The devices increase signal strength gradually The number of alerts is reduced 3 / 10What is a key limitation of automatically generated subtitles mentioned in the articles? They cannot be used for live conten They always cause long delays They may struggle with accents, names, and speaker changes They are unsuitable for everyday media 4 / 10Why is legislation such as the European Accessibility Act important for subtitles? It standardises subtitles across all European languages It limits subtitles to public broadcasters It creates legal pressure to make video content accessible It replaces human subtitlers with technology 5 / 10Which statement correctly compares hearing aids and cochlear implants? Both devices send electrical signals directly to the brain Hearing aids and cochlear implants work in the same way but at different volumes Cochlear implants send electrical signals directly to the hearing nerve, while hearing aids do not Hearing aids are used only after surgery 6 / 10What concern do the articles raise about relying too much on technology for accessibility? Technology discourages Deaf community interaction Technology may be seen as a complete solution instead of part of broader access Technology always replaces sign language Technology removes the need for policy changes 7 / 10What distinguishes modern AI sign-language avatars from earlier systems? They follow spoken language word by word They rely only on written scripts They are trained using large datasets from fluent signers They work without any human input 8 / 10AI sign-language avatars already provide fully natural and error-free signing in all European sign languages.
