DESCRIPTION:Professor Dr Raziq Yaqub\, Associate Professor of the Alabama A
 &M Graduate School: “Topics in Adaptive Designs for Accessibility: Wirel
 ess Shifting Mounts for Handcycles and Trikes and PTSD Detection Device.
 ”\n\nWireless Shifting Mounts for Handcycles and Trikes\n\nBackground: A
 daptive cycling provides freedom to individuals facing a wide range of phy
 sical disabilities\; not only does it provide a means to recreate and stay
  active\, but it is also a source of transportation for those that have lo
 st the ability to drive. While there are many different styles of adaptive
  bicycles\, such as upright handcycles\, recumbent handcycles\, recumbent 
 trikes\, tandem trikes\, and more\, many adaptations are added to create a
  better user experience and further reduce barriers.\n\nPTSD Detection Dev
 ice\n\nBackground: America’s VetDogs provides enhanced mobility and rene
 wed independence to veterans\, active-duty service members\, and first res
 ponders with disabilities\, allowing them to once again live with pride an
 d self-reliance.\n\nWhile the service dogs are trained to support their ow
 ners when they exhibit PTSD symptoms visibly or audibly\, the ideal situat
 ion is to stop the episode before it happens. America’s VetDogs in partn
 ership with BAE Systems is seeking to develop a device that monitors a spi
 ke in an individual’s heart rate and blood pressure before a PTSD episod
 e begins. The device should alert the service dog so it can in-turn provid
 e the veteran with comfort.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Humanitarian Technolo
