Perception and haptics: towards more accessible computers for motion-impaired users (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hwang, F., Keates, S., Langdon, P., Clarkson, P. J., & Robinson, P. (2001, November). Perception and haptics: towards more accessible computers for motion-impaired users. Presented at PUI'01 Workshop on Perceptive User Interfaces, Orlando, FL, USA

For people with motion impairments, access to and independent control of a computer can be essential. Symptoms such as tremor and spasm, however, can make the typical keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer interaction difficult or even impossibl...

Combining utility, usability and accessibility methods for universal access (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., & Clarkson, P. J. (2001). Combining utility, usability and accessibility methods for universal access. In Conference Proceedings on CHI 2001: Anyone. Anywhere

It is known that many products are not accessible to large sections of the population. Designers instinctively focus on providing the necessary utility for someone with their physical and skill capabilities. They are either unaware of the needs of us...

Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hwang, F., Langdon, P., Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2001). Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users. In Conference Proceedings of Eurohaptics 2001

This paper describes a pilot experiment which examines the effectiveness of using force-feedback technology to assist motion-impaired computer users in target selection tasks. Two measures to evaluate the effectiveness of force feedback assistance ar... Read More about Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users.

Fungal remediation of soils contaminated with persistent organic pollutants (2001)
Book Chapter
Singleton, I. (2001). Fungal remediation of soils contaminated with persistent organic pollutants. In G. M. Gadd (Ed.), Fungi in Bioremediation, (79-96). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511541780.005

Laboratory-based studies have shown that fungi are able to degrade a wide range of organic pollutants (see other chapters) and have great potential for use as inoculants to remediate contaminated soil. However, soil is a heterogeneous environment and... Read More about Fungal remediation of soils contaminated with persistent organic pollutants.
