Selected problems of designing a human-computer interface for the disabled

Abstract

Analysis of praxic movements (PMA) is a novel approach to graphical user interface development, based on natural human behaviour. In a PMA-based interface, each screen element is related to a single function performed by the computer system. When the user points to a screen element, the related function is activated. A PMA-based interface is supported by an AI component responsible for detection and interpretation of the pointing action. The dynamics of pointer movements over the screen is a sole source of the information processed by PMA, while all other input signals are neglected. Those properties of a PMA-based interface make it a convenient tool for creation of simple and intuitively operated human-computer interfaces for the disabled.
