1991

Edit | Del

Pitt, Ian J. and Edwards, Alistair (1991): Navigating the Interface by Sound for Blind Users. In: Diaper, Dan and Hammond, Nick (eds.) Proceedings of the Sixth Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers VI August 20-23, 1991, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK. pp. 373-383.

“The increasing reliance on visual forms of communication in modern computer interfaces poses severe problems for blind users. A possible solution is to make greater use of auditory communication. Speech has obvious applications, but is slow and hence not useful in situations where immediate feedback to the user is essential, such as when locating items using a mouse. Experiments have been carried out in order to ascertain the best way in which to use non-speech sounds to guide the user in locating such targets. The guiding principle has been to modulate the sounds in a manner which is as natural as possible, so that people can exploit their every-day listening skills. Some success has been achieved, particularly through the use of stereo sounds to give two-dimensional spatial sound guidance.”
