INPH is a software layer, running on the end-user's computer, making easier the access to the Web for motor impaired persons. Browsing means a particularly high usage of both the mouse and the keyboard. There exist many types of adapted physical interfaces replacing the mouse, making use of the various abilities of the motor impaired persons. INPH is compatible with most of them.Its design was based on many years of work in the field, enriched by an inquiry conducted through Internet. Its user interface is a palette floating over the window managed by the browser. The palette is made of a matrix of chosen action buttons, with all the functionalities needed in most situations. INPH is freely downloadable from our Website. It has been used in the field for one year, mainly in Belgium and in France. Its formal evaluation will begin during autumn 2003.
