• Input Accessibility: A Large Dataset and Summary Analysis of Age, Motor Ability and Input Performance

  Leah Findlater, Lotus Zhang · 2020 · Proceedings of the 22nd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS 2020)

  This University of Washington study makes two key contributions to understanding how age and motor ability affect computer input performance: a large open dataset of mouse and touchscreen input traces from over 700 participants, and a summary analysis of mouse input data from…

• Designing and Evaluating Head-based Pointing on Smartphones for People with Motor Impairments

  Muratcan Cicek, Ankit Dave, Wenxin Feng, Michael Xuelin Huang, Julia Katherine Haines, Jeffry Nichols · 2020 · Proceedings of the 22nd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '20)

  This paper presents a calibration-free head-based pointing (HBP) system for Android smartphones that uses the standard front-facing camera to enable people with motor impairments to control an on-screen cursor through head movements. The system was designed by a team including…

• Experimental Analysis of a Spatialised Audio Interface for People with Visual Impairments

  Jacobus C. Lock, Iain D. Gilchrist, Grzegorz Cielniak, Nicola Bellotto · 2020 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This paper evaluates a spatialised audio interface designed to help people with visual impairments find objects in indoor environments. Part of the ActiVis project, the system uses a Google Project Tango mobile device with RGB-D cameras for localization and Aftershokz…

• A Comparison of Touchscreen and Mouse for Real-World and Abstract Tasks with Older Adults

  Sung-Hee Kim, Kailun Zhang, Joanna McGrenere, Kellogg S. Booth, Claudia Jacova · 2020 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This study investigates whether input device choice (touchscreen vs. mouse) affects performance on computerized cognitive tests for older adults, with implications for the C-TOC (Cognitive Testing on Computer) project developing self-administered online cognitive screening. As…

• Effects of Aging on Small Target Selection with Touch Input

  Afroza Sultana, Karyn Moffatt · 2019 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This study provides a detailed analysis of age-related touch selection errors on small touchscreen devices, extending prior work on mouse and pen interaction to finger touch input. Twenty older adults (ages 67-81, M=73.3) and sixteen younger adults (ages 22-35, M=28.9) completed…

• Exploring Methods to Improve Pen-Based Menu Selection for Younger and Older Adults

  Karyn Moffatt, Joanna McGrenere · 2009 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This study investigates why users struggle with pen-based menu selection on tablet PCs, particularly older adults, and tests two approaches for reducing errors. Building on a baseline study that identified three error types (slipping, drifting, and "missing just below"), the…

• Performance analysis of an integrated eye gaze tracking / electromyogram cursor control system

  Craig A. Chin, Armando Barreto, J. Gualberto Cremades, Malek Adjouadi · 2007 · Proceedings of the 9th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '07)

  Chin, Barreto, Cremades, and Adjouadi's Assets '07 demonstration paper from Florida International University evaluates a hybrid cursor-control system that combines eye-gaze tracking (EGT) with electromyogram (EMG) input from facial muscles, targeted at users with motor…

• The Vocal Joystick: Evaluation of Voice-based Cursor Control Techniques

  Susumu Harada, James A. Landay, Jonathan Malkin, Xiao Li, Jeff A. Bilmes · 2006 · Proceedings of the 8th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '06)

  This paper presents the Vocal Joystick, a system that enables continuous mouse cursor control through vocal parameters — specifically vowel quality, loudness, and pitch. Unlike traditional speech recognition systems that process discrete commands ("move left," "click"), the…
