....can be translated into haptic coding, haptic and visual mapping is not one to one. Color is one of those properties that cannot be translated into a haptic form [7] Some devices providing sense of touch and force feedback, are actuated by pin arrays, and some by electrorheological fluid pads [16]. The Mercator Project at the Georgia Institute of Technology uses a force feedback device called Pantograph [9] which allows a user to perceive different 2D windows, and move them on the screen. Some other force feedback devices are used for robotic research, and manipulation of virtual objects ....

....This prototype system provides access to previously inaccessible visual information using image processing and tactile graphics production techniques. The goal of this system is to free the blind computer user from reliance upon a sighted individual to prepare custom tactile graphics, or tactics [25], and to overcome the considerable time delay in doing so. The specific techniques used in this system are introduced and support is provided linking their use to applicable theories of perception. The efficacy of these techniques, which involve the application of a number of image processing ....

Access Technology for Blind Computer Users Blind persons have a great many means for accessing textual and visual information [7] 10] 11] 13] 19] 20] [25], 24] 27] 43] 54] 78] A number of these methods already do or can be adapted to provide blind computer users with access to graphical information. Many traditional methods of access, such as braille output in one form or another, are, and continue to be, widely used. Their efficacy is ....
