Noble, Nicolas (2006): Shape discovering using tactile guidance. In: EuroHaptics 2006 July 3-6, 2006, Paris, France. pp. 561-564.

In this paper we will present an interaction technique that may be used to teach simple geometric shapes to visually impaired people. The idea is to use a VTPlayer mouse - a device with two braille displays - and by using directional cues on the braille display of the mouse, we guide the user to describe a path with his hand. Then, we think the user will be able to learn a shape, and recognize it later on.

Noble, Nicolas (2005): Preliminary study of tactile feedback devices featuring quick discrimination. In: 2nd International Conference on Enactive Interfaces ENACTIVE 05 November 17-18, 2005, Genoa, Italy. .

This paper is a report of a set of preliminary experiments, about the tactile perception of several kind of actuators. The goal of these experiments is to find a set of additional modalities to give to users, in order to create hints when exploring a virtual environment. To restrict to a precise field for this study, we only wanted to guide people alongside a horizontal axis, telling them a distance to the left or the right. At the end, we wanted four signals: left-far, left-near, right-near and right-far. The actuators tested here are a tactaid VBW32, and a custom joystick featuring directionnal feedback. The tests showed that it is possible to have short signals sent to the user with good discrimination, using skin actuators, but that the signals have to be choose depending on the users.

Software design is the act of determining the user's experience with a piece of software. It has nothing to do with how the code works inside, or how big or small the code is. The designer's task is to specify completely and unambiguously the user's whole experience.

-- David Liddle, From Bringing Design to Software, edited by Terry Winograd, 1996
