ABSTRACT:
An improved user interface for use with a mobile telecommunication device such as a mobile phone to make its featured more accessible to a sight-impaired user. The user interface employs a collection of distinguishable non-visual (NV) cues that are selectively generated as the user chooses a feature for activation by navigating through a menu system. The NV cues may take any of several forms, but are most usually vibration pulses or audible sounds, or a combination of these two forms. As the user navigates through the menu system by sequentially selecting from available options, the NV cues are generated so that the user can sense a location within the menu system. The different NV cues may be associated with the availability of certain selected options, the selection of them, or organized in a manner analogous to the manner in which the options themselves are organized.
