Title
Blind and Visually Impaired People: Human-Computer Interaction and Access to Graphics
Abstract
Graphical interfaces for modern information and communication systems are state of the art in computer interaction. Graphical interfaces stand for fast, comprehensive, and flexible usage of computer in working as well as in private environments. Impaired people, especially visually impaired, have major problems using the graphical interface. These people can not use contemporary computer programs. That is one reason for comprehensive less number of visually impaired employees. Helping these people is a necessary, but difficult challenge. The introduced special thematic session "Blind and Visually Impaired People: Human-Computer Interaction and Access to Graphics" represents current research towards solutions for visually impaired and brings together researchers and practitioners. The STS represents topics from hard- and software user interfaces, screen reader, accessibility of specific applications, and e-learning and communication strategies.
