User experiences system design for visually impaired and blind users in Oman

Abstract

The assistive technology is a technology that used for helping the visually challenged people to use the computer such as transaction through online, railway reservation etc. The main aim of this paper is to explain the possible element of technology that can enhance the efficiency of the usage by visually impaired and blind users in Sultanate of Oman. The objective of this research to administrate the power of user experience in developing a system for visually impaired and blind users. In addition to help blind users in defining the criteria of systems that is appropriate for them. This paper has accomplished to point out the importance of the technology that can assist without interference of human and show the loopholes in the current technology. There are different methodology has been used to implement the development and design of application. The traditional approach to develop software has been followed along with some new methodology that is incorporating new devices in the system. My research designed to find out how people feel or what they think while using system. Project management methodologies simply define principles, like agile that is one of the best SDLC models that is very flexible, iterative design and build process. The approach that is used called prototype modelling which used for interviewing the user and make a demo type of the final product by adopted a both type of approach to analyses the procedure of development.
