• TGuide: A Guidance System for Tactile Image Exploration

  Martin Kurze (1998) — Proceedings of the Third International ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '98)

  This paper presents TGuide, a system that actively guides blind users' hands during exploration of tactile graphics using a novel vibrotactile directional output device. The author identifies three key problems with unaided tactile image exploration:…

  • tactile graphics
  • blind and low vision
  • vibrotactile display
  • haptic technology
  • directional guidance
  • image accessibility
  • assistive technology
  • tactile image exploration
