Abstract

Making complex structures accessible to blind people is challenging due to the need for skilled explainers. Interactive 3D printed models (I3Ms) have been developed to enable independent learning of 3D models through activating audio labels. However, they present single-layered information and require users to identify interactive elements through a pinpointing action, which might be insufficient for learning complex and unfamiliar subjects. In this paper, we investigate I3Ms for complex structures. We propose TouchPilot, a guidance system designed based on a study that observed learner-explainer interaction styles. TouchPilot guides users step by step through navigation, exploration of hierarchical elements, and confirmation of their entire areas. A follow-up study found that the guidance system led to better learning outcomes and higher independence compared to a pinpointing system. Feedback suggests that being primed by the guidance system systematically, followed by pinpointing freely for review, is preferred for learning complex structures.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
