Abstract(in English) | Personal computers are indispensable for persons with severe motor disabilities to ensure communication and social participation. For poinier operation, they usually use a scanning mouse emulator together with a single switch. As a typical emulator, Cartesian-cursor method is widely used in most interface software assisting computer operation. Several parameters of the method, however, have been determined based on empirical knowledge or on a trial-and-error basis. In order to determine them from user's physical ability, we investigated the relations between parameter values and total operation time by means of computer simulation in this study. If user's response time is given empirically, we already proposed how to optimize the speed of cursor movement and focus stationary time in a previous study. In addition, this study demonstrated that the ratio of high speed to low speed and the travel distance of the cursor before acceleration can also be optimized. |
