OTON GLASS is a wearable device created by Keisuke Shimakage to help people with dyslexia read text aloud by detecting a blink trigger. The first prototype in 2013 involved Shimakage's dyslexic father to confirm the concept. A second 2014 prototype collaborated with five dyslexic users and four organizations. Feedback improved the design, including making the blink trigger easier to use. The prototypes effectively functioned as a shared language to collaborate with stakeholders from various fields. The conclusion is that amateur hardware teams can create low-cost prototypes using technologies like Raspberry Pi to collaborate on solutions.

Editor's Notes
- I will start my presentation. This title is “OTON GLASS: A case study of Japanese hardware startups in the context of DIY making”. Firstly I will introduce ourself, My name is Keisuke, this project head and I am Second year master’s student at IAMAS. His name is Naoya, he is engineer. His name is Arata, he is designer. We are running our company, Particular design Inc.
- Lindner said this words in her paper published at 2014. This word is important for our activity. I believe DIY making give us a power of learning and growing by using our hands. And give me a chance to realize our idea like big manufacture company have done ever. I want to introduce our learning and growing process in this presentation.
- There are 5 contents. First, I will explain the background of this paper. Second, I will explain about OTON GLASS. Third, I will explain First prototype for involving user. Fourth, I will explain Second prototype for collaborating stakeholder. Finally I will explain conclusion.
- Introduction. First, I will refer the Silvia Lindner’s opinion about Hackerspaces, Hardware Startups & Incubators. Second I will refer about Japanese hardware startups & Infrastructure. Third, I will pick up OTON GLASS as A case study of Japanese hardware startups.
- Silvia Lindtner refers to hardware startups that are born in hackerspaces, primarily giving examples from the US and China. For example, the Pebble Watch (a programmable watch whose team is the recipient of the largest Kickstarter campaign in history) and MakerBot (a low cost 3D printer that has become a key symbol for an industrial revolution via DIY making) were born in hackerspace.
- In Japan, there are some changes that empower hardware startups as well. For example, the WILL (a personal mobility made in a small town in Japan known for manufacturing, and which are sold in the US) and Moff (a wearable smart toy) can provide their product utilizing Kickstarter. DMM.make AKIBA (an incubation space for hardware startups, which has the latest 3D printers, 3D CAD, various measuring equipment and test equipment) was established in 2014. And Omron (the Japanese electronic manufacturer) started its incubation program in 2014.
- But Japanese hardware startups that are derived from DIY making are not referred to in HCI. So in this paper we will pick up and refer to the OTON GLASS project, this project is reflected in the DIY movement.
- Over view of OTON GLASS. Firstly, I will share the concept of OTON GLASS. Secondly, I will show our real practice in this project.
- OTON GLASS is a wearable device for people who have difficulty in reading.
- We make prototype to realize this concept little by little. We learn by prototyping and user test. And we change our idea of how to realize it.
- I will explain First prototype detail.
- The motivation for this device was that my father acquired dyslexia. Three years ago, my father was hospitalized due to a stroke, and he became dyslexic. Now, thanks to rehabilitation, he has recovered. He can read and write most words.
- First, I interviewed my father and observed his behavior. This allowed me to identify the problems. During the ideation phase, I did idea sketching and video prototyping.
- We developed the first prototype. The purpose of the first prototype was to confirm our concept with my father. So this prototype had only two functions. One function was detection of a blink as the trigger. The other was capturing a picture of the words and translate them into sounds.
- I will explain Second prototype detail.
- We developed the second prototype. The purpose of the second prototype is to perform user tests with other dyslexic people and collaborate with stakeholder. This prototype had added eye track functions, and the feedback speed was shortened to 3 seconds. We modeled the data of the exterior design using CAD and printed it with a 3D printer.
- 5 dyslexic people tried this prototype.
- We are collaborating with four organizations/people. First, we participated in the incubation program run by NTT Docomo Ventures, and we communicated with a diverse group of people, such as mentors and investors, who we are now supported by. We established our company at this time. Second, we received advice from researchers at the School of Medicine at Keio University about dyslexia and low vision. Third, we received advice about the device from Nagumo Akihiko, who is dyslexic. And lastly, we collaborated with the optical character recognition research group (selected CREST fund at 2010), whose participants include Osaka University, Keio University, Kyushu University, and Tohoku University.
- We can say with certainty that amateur teams can easily make prototypes at low cost using raspberry pi, 3D printers and electronic parts (which are bought at Aribaba), and that this team was able to collaborate with stakeholders using this prototype. Thank you for your attention.
