ACM CHI 1995 - Tactil-based Direct Manipulation in GUIs for Blind Users



The increasing of graphical user interfaces is making computer systems more, rather than less difficult to interact with for the blind users. One solution is to creat interfaces for blind users which are based on auditory and tactile information rather than visual information. This video illustrates how the GUIB interface allows users to directly manipulate interface objects using a touchpad and braile display with cursor routing buttons. This gives blind users the same sense of engagement with the interface which sighted users gain from using a mouse.
