Exploring Accessible Smartwatch Interactions for People with Upper Body Motor Impairments
summary
The work evaluates how people with upper-body motor impairments perform common smartwatch gestures (button, swipe, tap) by testing existing gestures with 10 participants, then uses participatory design with 11 participants to elicit preferred and alternative gestures across touchscreen and non-touchscreen areas (bezel, wristband, and on-body). It reports which interactions participants could or could not complete and distills design recommendations for more accessible smartwatch interaction techniques.
