Accessible Gesture Interaction

The design and implementation of gesture-based interactions that can be effectively used by people with diverse abilities, including those with motor impairments, visual disabilities, or conditions such as tremor, spasm, or limited range of motion. Accessible gesture interaction involves understanding how different disabilities affect gesture performance, selecting gesture vocabularies that align with users' physical capabilities, and providing appropriate feedback modalities. Research in this area draws on empirical data from gesture collection studies with users who have disabilities to inform evidence-based design rather than relying on assumptions about what gestures are feasible.
