Web accessibility for people with reduced mobility: A case study using eye tracking
(2016)
Traditional web interfaces often rely on keyboard/mouse input to work. This characteristic forces people with reduced mobility to adapt or do not use the applications at all. This paper proposes a prototype to increase web ...
A Gesture-Based Interaction Approach for Manipulating Augmented Objects Using Leap Motion
(2015-11)
Ambient Intelligence and Ubiquitous Computing are carrying the world to a reality where almost every object interacts with the environment, either via sensors or actuators, and users must learn how to interact with such ...
Sign language recognition model combining non-manual markers and handshapes
(2016-11-29)
People with disabilities have fewer opportunities. Technological developments should be used to help these people to have more opportunities. In this paper we present partial results of a research project which aims to ...
Sign Language Recognition Using Leap Motion
(2015-12-01)
