Graphic-user-interface system for people with severely impaired vision in mathematics class

TLDR
The "Braille Box", an assistive device, has been developed by modifying Braille cells to form a tactile stimulator array which is compatible with the fingertip, and shows that it can perform task as determining the slope, the intercept and the coordinates of the intersection of two lines.
Abstract
Computer software is more and more developed based on graphic-user-interface system (GUI) in order to be user-friendly program However, this development creates some difficulties for people with impaired vision to use the computers The "Braille Box", an assistive device, has been developed by modifying Braille cells to form a tactile stimulator array which is compatible with the fingertip This device allows people with impaired vision to access graphic information on computer screen by tactile perception We applied the "Braille Box" in mathematics class focused on linear graph, with visually impaired children The result shows that they can perform task as determining the slope, the intercept and the coordinates of the intersection of two lines

Braille box: analysis of the parallelism concept to access graphic information for blind people

TL;DR: The result from the experiment with 25 subjects shows that the quality of perception is influenced by the characteristic of array, and the form detection is made easier with a multiple sensor array rather than with the mono sensor array.
