Where still trying to figure out how to convey targets using non visual feedback to allow blind kids to play exergames that require gestures aimed at targets. It's a very complicated problem which is similar to allowing people with visual impairments to interact with a touchscreen. <br /><br />Best EelkeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14679978.post-81911406675663177802011-01-29T08:54:44.418-05:002011-01-29T08:54:44.418-05:00Eelke, that is why I've been thinking about u...Eelke, that is why I've been thinking about usability/accessibility for "NUI" or post-WIMP applications and systems. <br /><br />I am particularly concerned that the interactive displays in public spaces, such as directories, wayfinding maps, and in-store marketing efforts do not address the needs of people with disabilities.<br /><br />We have web accessibility standards, we need to have the same sort of thing in place for everything else that is supported by technology.Lynn Marentettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03087071578329079976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14679978.post-81288505766962443682011-01-29T02:30:07.883-05:002011-01-29T02:30:07.883-05:00I love NUI but it does put up new barriers for use...I love NUI but it does put up new barriers for users with disabilities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14679978.post-7433160623037205282011-01-28T23:05:55.203-05:002011-01-28T23:05:55.203-05:00And you have!And you have!Lynn Marentettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03087071578329079976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14679978.post-66072259099600995222011-01-28T23:03:01.724-05:002011-01-28T23:03:01.724-05:00hey guys - not suggesting Microsoft owns NUI at al...hey guys - not suggesting Microsoft owns NUI at all...but we do expect to play a big part!<br /><br />Stevesteve claytonhttp://www.microsoft.com/nextnoreply@blogger.com
