- This paper is unique in contributing the first formalised model for the design of computer-based user interfaces that enables blind and visually impaired (BVI) people to draw graphically, on screen, with a higher level of precision that was previously possible using previous technological approaches. By instantiating inclusive design principles and applying them to the domain of BVI users, the system developed is empowering BVI users with the ability to draw, in a way that is truly intuitive, on computer graphically in both educational and commercial contexts. This has increased the career and educational prospects for blind and visually impaired people.
