Touchscreen Voting Interface Design for Persons with Dexterity Impairments: Insights from Usability Evaluation of Mobile Voting Prototype

摘要

To address the need for a universal and accessible voting solution, our research team designed and created a mobile voting user interface prototype for individuals with disabilities using specifications gathered from previous research focused on mobile and/or accessible design. We evaluated the usability of our prototype with individuals with moderate dexterity impairments and with no disabilities, and the majority of participants had a positive reaction and experience using this system. Our study generally confirmed previous research, and we discovered further considerations for mobile voting interface design for users with moderate dexterity impairments, involving buttons that are repeatedly pressed, button placement options, interpretations of inputs or touches, and adjustable support that provides various angle and height options.
