Abstract(in English)	An experiment was conducted in which subjects were required to search for an icon without looking at the GUI screen. Acoustical feedback was given to them when the cursor reached the icon or one of the edges of the display screen. The differences of the search distance between subjects or pointing devices were not statistically significant. The significant differences of the search time were due to the differences of the search speed. On the basis of these findings, a few starategies were proposed that are expected to assist the visually impaired and blind in using and understanding GUI.
