Pietrzak, Thomas, Martin, Benoît and Pecci, Isabelle (2009): Étude et tests d'une application haptique multimodale pour enfants déficients visuels. In Sciences et technologies pour le handicap,

New technologies allow proposing new interactions, in particular for disabled people. This paper presents the European project MICOLE that aims at providing a development API for multimodal and multi-users applications intended for visually impaired users. In this API, new interactions techniques based on haptic such as tactons and PICOB are introduced. Then, we show an electric circuit schematic exploration software that is built with this API and that uses the PHANToM and the VTPlayer mouse. Finally, we present results of the first experimentation of this application with 13 visually impaired children.

Pietrzak, Thomas, Crossan, Andrew, Brewster, Stephen A., Martin, Benoît and Pecci, Isabelle (2009): Exploring Geometric Shapes with Touch. In: Gross, T. (ed.) Interact 2009 2009, Uppsala, Sweden. pp. 145-148.

We propose a new technique to help users to explore geometric shapes without vision. This technique is based on a guidance using directional cues with a pin array. This is an alternative to the usual technique that consists of raising the pins corresponding to dark pixels around the cursor. In this paper we compare the exploration of geometric shapes with our new technique in unimanual and bimanual conditions. The users made fewer errors in unimanual condition than in bimanual condition. However they did not explore the shapes more quickly and there was no difference in confidence in their answer.

We propose a new technique to help people to explore geometric shapes without vision. This technique is based on a guidance using directional cues with a pin array. This is an alternative to the usual technique that consists of raising the pins corresponding to dark pixels around the cursor. In this paper we compare the exploration of geometric shapes with our new technique in unimanual and bimanual conditions. According to our results, the users made few errors in both conditions. Moreover the results show an equivalence for both techniques in answer time and users' confidence in their answer.

Martin, Benoît and Pecci, Isabelle (2007): Etat de l'art des claviers physiques et logiciels pour la saisie de texte. In Revue d'Interaction Homme-Machine (RIHM), pp. 147-205

The pull for mobile computing encourages the amount of methods for text entry. It is not the unique motivation. The needs for users have changed ; they grow because the users have changed. Now, very specific needs to a context of use or to an impairment make standard keyboard unusable. This article presents a state of the art of the keyboard-replacement solutions. It aims at classifying solutions encountered, among physical keyboards, and among software keyboards. Several benchmarks are considered to study these various keyboards: look, kind of text entry, prediction, context of use and performance. This article shows a wide range of keyboards. The goal is to have a look at many different approaches aims to understand the various keyboards solutions and aims to help to choose best keyboards according context of use and users.

Pietrzak, Thomas, Martin, Benoît and Pecci, Isabelle (2005): Affichage d'informations par des impulsions haptiques. In: Proceedings of the 2005 Conference of the Association Francophone dInteraction Homme-Machine 2005. pp. 223-226. Available online

Our goal was to find haptic effects that could be used to present information to the user of a haptic pointing device. We present a study on users' ability to discriminate between different effects presented with a PHANToM haptic pointing device. The effects we experimented with were bumps that the user could feel through the PHANToM. The direction and the amplitude of the bumps were manipulated. The results show that the direction is easy to discriminate, but the amplitude is not. Only two levels of amplitude could be reliably discriminated.

I'm an enemy of what I call 'computer theology.' There's a class conflict out there. There's a techno-elite that lives in a different world.
