  • I-VAMOS: Independent Voting with Accessible Multimodal Offline System for Visually Impaired Users

    Gyeongdeok Kim, Chungman Lim, Gyungmin Jin, Gunhyuk Park · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    This paper introduces I-VAMOS, an offline multimodal voting assistance system designed to enable blind and low-vision (BLV) voters to cast paper ballots independently and secretly. The authors situate their work in the constitutional right to a secret ballot, noting that BLV…

  • The Eyes Have It: Visual Feedback Methods to Make Walking in Immersive Virtual Reality More Accessible for People With Mobility Impairments While Utilizing Head-Mounted Displays

    M. Rasel Mahmud, Alberto Cordova, John Quarles · 2023 · Proceedings of the 25th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS 2023)

    This paper addresses a critical accessibility barrier in VR: head-mounted displays (HMDs) obstruct peripheral vision of the real world, causing gait disturbances that are particularly dangerous for people with mobility impairments who rely on visual cues for balance. The…

  • Encouraging Speech and Vocalization in Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder

    Joshua Hailpern · 2007 · SIGACCESS Accessibility and Computing

    This paper reviews existing HCI research on autism spectrum disorder and proposes a new direction: using technology to encourage speech and vocalization in children with ASD who have not acquired spoken language. The author identifies a gap in the field — while HCI researchers…

  • visiBabble Demo

    Harriet Fell, Joel MacAuslan, Jun Gong, Josh Ostrow · 2005 · Proceedings of the 7th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '05)

    This paper presents a demonstration of visiBabble, a computer-based system designed to encourage and reinforce pre-speech vocalizations in infants at risk of being nonspeaking due to neurological or oral/motor impairments. The system consists of a notebook computer, microphone,…

  • A system for teaching speech to profoundly deaf children using synthesized acoustic and articulatory patterns

    E. Keate, H. Javkin, N. Antonanzas-Barroso, R. Zou · 1994 · Proceedings of the First Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '94)

    This paper describes a PC-based computer-assisted speech training system for profoundly deaf children that integrates a text-to-speech (TTS) synthesizer to generate both acoustic and articulatory models for any typed utterance. The system addresses a fundamental limitation of…
