SWAT: Mobile System-Wide Assistive Technologies
Mobile operating systems have evolved to provide increasing accessibility capabilities. However, mobile application developers are still restricted to deploy custom-made accessible applications or to extend limited and stereotyped accessibility services. In this paper, we present SWAT, an extensible framework that provides system-level content and event information to application developers. It...
متن کاملMobile assistive technologies for the visually impaired.
There are around 285 million visually impaired people worldwide, and around 370,000 people are registered as blind or partially sighted in the UK. Ongoing advances in information technology (IT) are increasing the scope for IT-based mobile assistive technologies to facilitate the independence, safety, and improved quality of life of the visually impaired. Research is being directed at making mo...
متن کاملAssistive Technologies for Spinal Cord Injured Individuals: Electromyographic Mobile Accessibility
We present an approach for quadriplegic users to control mobile devices. Although several assistive technologies provide disabled users with computer or wheelchair control, there are still enormous interaction and control gaps to bridge: mobile device control, and subsequent communication capabilities, is one of them. An EMG-based solution is presented as well as the system’s requisites, proble...
متن کاملGaze-based Assistive Technologies
The eyes play an important role both in perception and communication. Technical interfaces that make use of their versatility can bring significant improvements to those, who are unable to speak or to handle selection tasks elsewise, e.g. with their hands, feet, noses or tools handled with the mouth. Using the eyes to enter texts into a computer system, which is called gaze-typing, is the most ...
متن کاملOntologizing Metadata for Assistive Technologies
This paper discusses the design challenges encountered when building an ontology repository for an application framework devoted to assistive technologies that can be browsed and queried in a highly heterogeneous and expressive way. As a main vehicle to achieve this goal we propose to use metadata and meta-reasoning. We analyze how metadata can be used in the context of open repositories of ont...
