Abstract

See full text

A visually impaired user is provided a non-visual, abstract representation of a multi-part information page. The non-visual, abstract representation is provided by auditory and tactile feedback. A touch pad provides tactile feedback for the boundaries between content areas of the page when the user's finger is located at coordinates on the touch pad which map to the boundaries between the content areas of the page. Auditory feedback provides meta-information on the content within a content area when the user's finger is located at coordinates on the touch pad which map to the content area.
