Dear All,
in this context also previous work, we did when I was at the
University Bremen especially targeting blind users, may be useful to
look on:
a) Automated interpretation and accessible presentation of technical
diagrams for blind people
http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1117667&dl=GUIDE&coll=GUIDE&CFID=4714959&CFTOKEN=14063806
(Unfortunately only the abstract is available there, but related work
is also under:
http://forte.fh-hagenberg.at/Project-Homepages/Blindenhund/conferences/granada/papers/HORSTMANN/horstmann.html
)
and
b) Semantic Access to Graphical Web Ressources for Blind Users
http://iswc2004.semanticweb.org/posters/PID-YIHSOXCY-1090249595.pdf
One result of this work was the establishment of an online service at:
http://www.kinf.wiai.uni-bamberg.de/research/projects/TeBUB/is/index.html
that I have to admit is no longer maintained. But we are now seeking
to formalise this in the framework of the EUAIN project (
http://www.euain.org
). This project organises a conference on "Adaptive Content
Processing" later this year that is worth considering too. More
details of the conference at: http://www.euain.org/acp08.
Best
George
