Pair Matching
June Han, Tom Hope · 2018
There have been attempts to tackle visual impairment issues in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). However, we can scarcely see HCI research outcomes are widely used by the blind. In this research, we aim to investigate new design possibilities as a transdisciplinary approach for guide dog training and education. We work with guide dog trainers, the blind, and guide dogs. In detail, we focus on matching guide dogs with visually impaired people. This work contributes to igniting research on designing interactive systems for the community of the visually impaired and also other human-animal-matching processes.
