Using haptic feedback to enhance computer interaction for motion-impaired users (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Langdon, P., Keates, S., Clarkson, P. J., & Robinson, P. (2000). Using haptic feedback to enhance computer interaction for motion-impaired users. In P. Sharkey, A. Cesarani, L. Pugnetti, & A. Rizzo (Eds.), Proceedings of the 3rd international conference o

For users with motion impairments, the standard keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer access often presents problems. Other approaches have to be adopted to overcome this. There is evidence to suggest that increasing the degrees-of-freedom, and... Read More about Using haptic feedback to enhance computer interaction for motion-impaired users.

Investigating industry attitudes to universal design. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Lebbon, C., & Clarkson, J. (2000). Investigating industry attitudes to universal design. In J. Winters (Ed.), Proceedings of the RESNA 2000 Annual Conference: Technology for the New Millennium (276-278)

The general population in most countries is getting older. With increasing age comes increasing variability in physical capability and hence a greater requirement for products and services to be designed for a broader user base. However, the products...

For users with motion impairments, the standard keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer access often presents problems. Other approaches have to be adopted to overcome this. There is evidence to suggest that increasing the degrees-offreedom, and... Read More about Investigating the use of force feedback for motion-impaired users.

Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, J., & Robinson, P. (2000). Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users. In M. Tremaine, E. Cole, & E. Mynatt (Eds.), Proceedings of the fourth international ACM conference on Assistive technologies (129-1

This paper considers the differences between users with motion-impairments and able-bodied users when they interact with computers and the implications for user models. Most interface design and usability assessment practices are based on explicit or... Read More about Investigating the applicability of user models for motion-impaired users.

Towards a practical inclusive design approach (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, P. J., Harrison, L., & Robinson, P. (2000). Towards a practical inclusive design approach. In J. Scholtz, & J. Thomas (Eds.), Proceedings on the 2000 conference on Universal Usability (CUU '00 ) (45-52). https://doi.org/10.1145/35546

It is known that many products are not accessible to large sections of the population. Designers instinctively design for able-bodied users and are either unaware of the needs of users with different capabilities, or do not know how to accommodate th...

For users with motion impairments, the standard keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer access often presents problems. Other approaches have to be adopted to overcome this. In this paper, we will describe the development of a prototype multimoda... Read More about Gestures and multimodal input.

Universal access in the work-place: a case study. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, J., Coy, J., & Robinson, P. (1999). Universal access in the work-place: a case study. In Proceedings of the 5th ERCIM Workshop on User Interfaces for All

Universal Access belongs not only in the research laboratory, but also in an industrial environment. Many countries have set out specific legal requirements for companies to meet in terms of proportions of staff with disabilities and meeting those re...

Designing a usable interface for an interactive robot. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., Clarkson, J., & Robinson, P. (1999). Designing a usable interface for an interactive robot. In ICORR '99: 6th International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (156-162)

The traditional emphasis of Rehabilitation Robotics has been dominated largely by the logistics of system development rather than how to maximise overall system usability [1]. The research programme at Cambridge has focused on the shortcomings of thi... Read More about Designing a usable interface for an interactive robot..
