Abstract

Mobile devices are becoming the mass IT platform of the future, reaching people that have never accessed the digital world. Aiming at digitally including visually impaired people also, it is necessary to address solutions that overcome natural barriers originating from the touch screen feature? a growing market trend. This concern has already triggered a number of researches and also some commercial solutions. However, a survey conducted to identify user requirements with blind and partially-sighted people evidenced that the few solutions available on market and the cutting-edge research are far from the reality for visually impaired people in a developing country scenario. To bridge this gap, this paper defines a set of guidelines that has been applied on the development of an accessible interaction model for mobile devices in the Brazilian context.
