  • How Do People with Limited Movement Personalize Upper-Body Gestures? Considerations for the Design of Personalized and Accessible Gesture Interfaces

    Momona Yamagami, Alexandra A Portnova-Fahreeva, Junhan Kong, Jacob O. Wobbrock, Jennifer Mankoff · 2023 · Proceedings of the 25th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '23)

    This study investigates how people with upper-body motor impairments design personalized gestures for common device functions like move, select, zoom-in, open, and delete. The researchers recruited 25 participants with conditions including spinal cord injury (13), muscular…

  • Performing Locomotion Tasks in Immersive Computer Games with an Adapted Eye-Tracking Interface

    Stephen Vickers, Howell Istance, Aulikki Hyrskykari · 2013 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

    This paper presents an approach to designing and adapting eye-gaze interaction techniques for locomotion tasks in immersive 3D games, specifically targeting young people with severe physical disabilities. The researchers developed a "transparent overlay" technique where…

  • Using Handhelds to Help People with Motor Impairments

    Brad A. Myers, Jacob O. Wobbrock, Sunny Yang, Brian Yeung, Jeffrey Nichols, Robert Miller · 2002 · Proceedings of the Fifth International ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '02)

    This paper presents the Pebbles project from Carnegie Mellon University, which developed software allowing handheld computers (Palm PDAs) to substitute for a PC's mouse and keyboard for people with muscular dystrophy and similar neuromuscular disorders. The key insight is that…
