First Bachelor Thesis
For my first bachelor thesis I wrote about different methods of web browsing for visually impaired people.
Abstract:
With the growing importance of the internet, there is also a growing responsibility to provide a good user experience for visually impaired people who browse it.
Different aids can be used for different problems, and this work wants to find out how different techniques could be utilised together to improve the quality of web browsing for sightless people. There are already various papers describing audio-only or tactile browsers or general accessibility issues, and the main point of this thesis is to collect and analyse different techniques to combine them. The capabilities of current web browsers concerning accessibility will be examined as well. At the end of this paper, a unified audio-tactile browser will be proposed by combining the previously investigated methods, based mainly on a tactile graphics tablet and a 3D audio engine.
