本文介绍了两个多模态界面的评估，旨在为视障人士提供访问各种类型的图形。这些接口包括音频和触觉，这些接口在市售的力反馈设备上呈现。本研究比较了两种力反馈设备的可用性：SensAble PHANToM和Logitech WingMan力反馈鼠标表示图形数据。实验中使用的图表类型是两种实验条件下的条形图：单模式和多模式。结果表明，PHANToM提供了更好的性能，在只有触觉的条件。然而，在多模式条件下，两种器械之间没有发现显著差异。这证实了在我们的研究中使用多模态方法的优势，并且低成本的触觉设备可以获得成功。本文介绍了我们的评估方法，并讨论了实验的结果。
This paper describes the evaluation of two multimodal interfaces designed to provide visually impaired people with access to various types of graphs. The interfaces consist of audio and haptics which is rendered on commercially available force feedback devices. This study compares the usability of two force feedback devices: the SensAble PHANToM and the Logitech WingMan force feedback mouse in representing graphical data. The type of graph used in the experiment is the bar chart under two experimental conditions: single mode and multimodal. The results show that PHANToM provides better performance in the haptic only condition. However, no significant difference has been found between the two devices in the multimodal condition. This has confirmed the advantages of using multimodal approach in our research and that low-cost haptic devices can be successful. This paper introduces our evaluation approach and discusses the findings of the experiment.
