Experiments on blindfolded and blind candidates show that Fitts' Law can be effectively applied for blind users using a vibrating touch-screen under certain parameters (i.e., …
In this context, our study targets the vibration modality on a touch-screen, and aims to shed some light on how vibration can be perceived by blind testers when accessing simple visual graphics on ...
Besides a sound for touch input, we can also turn a vibration on or off. Here, we get a haptic feedback when elements on the Samsung smartphone's display are tapped. Android 11 | One UI 3.0 Change. Back Continue . Tap on …
To achieve our goal, we develop a dedicated experimental protocol, titled EVIAC, testing a blind user's capacity in learning, distinguishing, identifying, and recognizing basic …
For example, previous studies showed that vibration feedback can facilitate visually impaired and blind users to access visual information on touchscreen in the static condition (Lahib et al., 2018; Tekli et al., 2018). However, in vibration environments, both human body and touchscreen devices vibrate.
Although current touchscreen-based smartphones are equipped with some accessibility functions for visually impaired people, these users still face substantial challenges, particularly when using smooth touchscreens. In this study, the accessibility factors of touchscreen interfaces for people with visual impairment were explored through principal …

The goal of our work is to evaluate Fitts' Law on a touch-screen for blind users. We aim to prove the following hypothesis: Fitts' Law can be applied for blind users executing the pointing task on a vibrating touch-screen. This is an essential prerequisite for developing more sophisticated visual data accessibility and navigation techniques ...
In this context, the goal of our study is to shed light on how the vibration modality can be perceived by blind users when accessing simple contour-based images and visual graphics on a touch-screen.

Several authors in (Buzzi M. et al., 2015; Cohen R.F. et al., 2005; Giudice N. A. et al., 2012; Su J. et al., 2010) have addressed accessibility of simple visual representations (basic shapes and charts) on vibrating touch-screens. They provide vibro- audio interfaces, combining touch-screen vibration and audio (sound and speech) feedback, allowing blind users to explore
