Brief
Making the British library interface more accessible to people with the cognitive limitations /intellectually disabled by embedding new audio features to BL-Kiosk
Improving the user experience using Audio
Audio ADR Strategy
• Research on existing BL-Kiosk• Find user audio problems• Define User Goals• Critically analyse and asses the concept ideas to improve
accessibility & user experience of the Kiosk• List all possible audio features • Produce initial visuals/audio of concept deliverables (mp3
files, sketches, recordings)• Sketch/wireframe NEW interface with audio for screen
solutions • Create diagrams and prototypes
Existing Interface
Right now we are just concentrating on the audio problems of the Interface/Kisosk
Audio problems of the existing interface
• Use of Headphone• No audio clues for visual actions• No audio translations for the books• No volume controller
User Group
• International and Multicultural Audience
• Age group: 7 -75years
Target User Group• People with cognitive limitations(ex: autism, down syndrome)
User Research
1. Accessibility
• Proportion of people in the general population with special needs is high.
• Accessibility refers to the degree to which software can be used �comfortably by a wide variety of people, including those who have cognitive limitations and disabilities.
• � 3 types - profound / severe / moderate / mild
• MILD/MODERATE :
Problems in reading
Problems in communicating
Suffer from memory loss
Troubles in solving problems
Limited understanding of day – day process
• Use of directional sound system to listen to the Audio
