Title
PLUMB: displaying graphs to the blind using an active auditory interface
Abstract
We present our ongoing research in the communication of graphs and relational information to blind users. We have developed a system called exPLoring graphs at UMB (PLUMB) that displays a drawn graph on a tablet PC and uses auditory cues to help a blind user navigate the graph. This work has applications to assist blind individuals in Computer Science education, navigation and map manipulation.
