• Route Descriptions, Spatial Knowledge and Spatial Representations of Blind and Partially Sighted People: Improved Design of Electronic Travel Aids

  Marion Hersh, Alasdair Ramirez Garcia · 2022 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This paper presents a qualitative study investigating how blind and partially sighted people acquire spatial knowledge, form mental maps, and describe routes—with the goal of informing better design of electronic travel aids (ETAs). The researchers worked with nine participants…
