Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper describes a project funded by the Commission of the European Communities (EC) and the European Free Trade Area (EFTA) and carried out by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) in the form of a Specialist Task Force (STF). The starting point of the project is the observation that new information and communication technologies (ICT) are often introduced without taking into account the requirements of elderly and/or disabled users, resulting in products and services that are hardly usable by those users. STF 377 on "Inclusive eServices for all: Optimizing the accessibility and use of upcoming user interaction technology" develops a roadmap of forthcoming user-interaction technologies with a scope of ten years and aims to identify relevant user requirements from an accessibility viewpoint as well as corresponding usability solutions. The project results will, therefore, allow stakeholders in different stages of the research and development lifecycle (researchers, designers, developers, etc.) of services and devices to spot potential difficulties in the design of service user interfaces which could cause elderly or disabled users to experience usability issues, and solutions that rectify those shortcomings will be proposed. At the time of writing, first results are available. However, any comments and contributions can still be considered for inclusion in the final deliverable.

Identifying enablers for future e-Services

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The starting point of the project is the observation that new information and communication technologies (ICT) are often introduced without taking into account the requirements of elderly and/or disabled users, resulting in products and services that are hardly usable by those users. A method for identifying enablers for future e-Services is described. In short it identifies usability problems with future interation technologies and map these future interaction technologies to e-Services. The results of investigations using this method allow stakeholders in different stages of the research and development lifecycle e-Services to spot potential difficulties in the design of user interfaces which could cause elderly or disabled users to experience usability issues.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have the potential to enhance the lives of most users. However, new user interaction technologies are often introduced without taking into account the requirements of elderly and/or disabled users, resulting in products and services that are hardly usable by those users. ETSI, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute, has established a Specialist Task Force (STF) 377 which is developing a roadmap of forthcoming user-interaction technologies with a scope of ten years and which aims to identify relevant user requirements from an accessibility viewpoint as well as corresponding usability solutions. The results of investigations using this method allow stakeholders in different stages of the research and development lifecycle of e-Services to identify and avoid potential difficulties in the design of user interfaces which could cause elderly or disabled users to experience usability issues.

Inclusive E-services for all : Identifying accessibility requirements for upcoming interaction technologies

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have the potential of facilitating the lives of citizens. However, experience consistently shows that user-interface innovations for consumer products are being researched and developed without taking into account the needs of people with disabilities. This situation is not helped by the fact that product and service developers can be unaware of the requirements of customers with impairments and therefore lack the insight into appropriate design solutions that may not be very demanding in terms of R&D and production costs. ETSI, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute, has established a Specialist Task Force (STF) 377 on "Inclusive eServices for all: Optimizing the accessibility and use of upcoming user interaction technology". The aim of this working group is to systematically evaluate ongoing and forthcoming interaction technologies to sketch a 10-year roadmap of foreseen technological enablers.

Standardising SPOKEN commands for mobile devices and services

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- reaching a level of maturity that suggests sophisticated voicebased user-interface technologies will soon be available in mobile devices. As voice commands for mobile devices and services have so far been primarily limited to voice dialling and the activation of individual menu items, there is currently a window of opportunity to standardise voice commands for basic functions of mobile devices and services. ETSI, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute, has formed a Specialist Task Force (STF) to extend the existing ETSI standard ES 202 076 on voice commands for mobile services and devices. The existing published standard covers five major European languages, whereas the revised version will extend the number of languages covered to 30. This paper gives an overview of the commands and languages covered, and outlines the approach used to identify the voice commands (elicitation, validation and phonetic discrimination).
