Comparing interaction strategies for constructing diagrams in an audio-only interface

چکیده
Although research on non-visual access to visualisations is steadily growing, very little work has investigated strategies for constructing such forms of representation through non-visual means. This paper describes the design of two interaction strategies for constructing and manipulating relational diagrams in audio. We report on a study that compared the two strategies, and discuss their advantages and disadvantages in terms of how efficiently they support the activity of constructing diagrams in an audio-only interface.

Constructing internal diagrammatic proofs from external logic diagrams
Internal syntactic operations on diagrams play a key role in accounting for efficacy of diagram use in reasoning. However, it is often held that in the case of complex deductive reasoning, diagrams can serve merely as an auxiliary source of information in interpreting sentences or constructing models. Based on experiments comparing subjects’ performances in syllogism solving where logic diagram...
متن کاملWorkspace Awareness in Collaborative Audio-Only Interaction with Diagrams
Using an audio-only diagraming tool, sixteen pairs of sighted individuals collaborated in a workspace where they used sound as the only means to communicate with each other and to access and edit shared entity-relationship diagrams. We examined the effects of the means for delivering audio to such a workspace – using headphones or speakers – on pairs’ workspace awareness. Results showed that pa...

متن کاملA Multimodal Interface for Presenting and Handling Heritage Artefacts
A multimodal interface for presenting and handling heritage artefacts is presented. Traditional exhibitions in museums provide limited possibilities of interaction between the visitor and their artefacts. Usually, interaction is confined to reading labels with little information on the exhibits, shop booklets and audio guided tours. These forms of interaction provide minimal information and do ...
