Abstract

In non-visual interfaces, using non-speech audio can be a more effective and efficient way of obtaining overview information than using speech. However, users who are blind regularly use speech-based tools to access information in computers, and often prefer this technology over others that pose steeper learning curves. This paper proposes a technique to explore numerical data tables interactively in order to extract overview information by optimising the use of speech.
