HCI Videos
- Open
Video Project
The Open Video
Project at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill provides a digital
library of videos for the education and research communities. More than 2000
video files on a variety of topics are available in MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4,
and QuickTime formats.
Of particular interest to SIGCHI members are the CHI conference videos (currently
112 videos from as early as 1995) and the 2000-2003 videos from annual open
houses at the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory,
University of Maryland (currently 52 videos). Additional CHI conference videos
will be added in the months ahead. The Project aims to develop and evaluate
the agile views interaction design framework with support from NSF.
The UI to the digital library incorporates user-selectable overview options
as well as storyboard, fast forward, and excerpt previews for many of the
videos to assist users in deciding whether to download specific files.

Blindenbibliothek
Bei der Gestaltung der Website wurde besonders auf die Zugänglichkeit
für blinde und sehbehinderte Surfer geachtet. Diese finden dort Informationen
über die Angebote der Bibliothek in den Bereichen Hörbuch, Lesen,
Musiknoten und Spiele sowie verschiedene Links. Die Website wurde von einer
Projektgruppe der SBS selbst erstellt. "Wir haben uns an die WAI-Richtlinien
des World Wide Web Consortium für die Optimierung von Websites für
Benützer mit Behinderungen gehalten", erklärt Daniela Hirscher,
Mitglied der Projektgruppe. "Zudem haben wir unser Angebot von diversen
Testprogrammen und eigenen blinden Mitarbeitern testen lassen." Bei der
Gestaltung der Site habe man vor allem auf Frames, Tabellen und Bilder (ohne
erklärende Zusatzinformation) verzichtet. Blinde und Sehbehinderte können
die Site so auch mit Hilfe von Sprachumwandlungs-Software oder einem kleinen
Braille-Display benützen. Bei letzterem handelt es sich um eine Hardware-Komponente,
mit kleinen Stiften, die sich hoch und runter bewegen lassen und so den Inhalt
einer ganzen Zeile in Blindenschrift darstellen.
