Understanding Domain Expert's Perspectives and Expectations in Assistive Technology

Designing computer applications for blind users is a challenging task. The design requirements should encompass those feedback obtained from the target users, the domain experts as well as the designers' intuition of the system. Current practice has placed little emphasis on the involvement of...
