尽管创客运动有望赋予个人权力，使设计民主化，但残障人士在参与方面仍面临许多障碍。最近的工作强调了制作的不可接近性，并介绍了更容易接近的制作技术、实践和工作空间。一个较少探索的无障碍制作领域涉及支持更传统的工艺形式，如编织和纤维艺术。本研究报告分析了居住社区内为视力障碍人士提供的织布机工作室的现有实践，并探索了音频增强织布机的创建来支持这一实践。我们在编织工作室进行了60个小时的实地观察，并与社区居民和教师进行了15次访谈。这些见解为Melodie的设计提供了灵感，这是一种互动式地板织机，可以在编织过程中感知并提供音频反馈。我们对Melodie的设计探索揭示了这个社区的四种使用场景：促进新手编织者的学习，提高系统状态的意识，增强编织的美学，支持艺术表演。我们确定了设计音频增强技术的建议，以促进无障碍工艺，并反思技术在主要手工工艺中的作用。
Despite the promise of the maker movement as empowering individuals and democratizing design, people with disabilities still face many barriers to participation. Recent work has highlighted the inaccessible nature of making and introduced more accessible maker technologies, practices, and workspaces. One less explored area of accessible making involves supporting more traditional forms of craftwork, such as weaving and fiber arts. The present study reports an analysis of existing practices at a weaving studio within a residential community for people with vision impairments and explores the creation of an audio-enhanced loom to support this practice. Our iterative design process began with 60 hours of field observations at the weaving studio, complemented by 15 interviews with residents and instructors at the community. These insights informed the design of Melodie, an interactive floor loom that senses and provides audio feedback during weaving. Our design exploration of Melodie revealed four scenarios of use among this community: promoting learning among novice weavers, raising awareness of system state, enhancing the aesthetics of weaving, and supporting artistic performance. We identify recommendations for designing audio-enhanced technologies that promote accessible crafting and reflect on the role of technology in predominantly manual craftwork.
