PlatMult

Abstract

Screen magnifiers are the usual assistive technology for low vision users in computer interaction. However, even using a screen magnifier, low vision users have serious limitations for web access. In order to mitigate this problem, we propose a multisensory platform called PlatMult, composed of visual, auditory, tactile feedback. The PlatMult provides a screen magnifier, integrated with a screen reader, and an adapted mouse with motor feedback. The feedback is fired in an integrated way; for instance, when the user moves the mouse over links and buttons in a webpage, the PlatMult activates the screen reader and the mouse motor feedback. This paper describes the components developed in order to obtain the accessible events from the Firefox web browser.
