本文介绍了一个研究项目的进展，旨在提高盲人用户通过屏幕阅读器和语音合成器进行交互的Web搜索工具的可用性。在研究的第一阶段，提出了具体的指导方针，以简化与搜索引擎的盲人的互动。为了评估这些标准，他们被应用到谷歌用户界面，通过重新实现搜索表单以及结果页面。最后，重新设计的界面进行了评估，通过远程测试与12个完全失明的用户。结果强调了谷歌虽然已经可以访问，但可以进一步改进，以简化视力受损者的互动。
This paper describes the progress of a research project aimed at improving the usability of web search tools for blind users who interact via screen readers and voice synthesizers. In the first stage of research, specific guidelines were proposed for simplifying the interaction with search engines for the blind. To evaluate these criteria, they were applied to Google user interfaces, by re-implementing the search form as well as the results page. Finally, the redesigned interfaces were evaluated through remote testing with 12 totally blind users. The results highlighted how Google, although already accessible, may be further improved in order to simplify interaction for people with impaired vision.
