A color model in the usability of computer interface applied to users with low vision

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a research on the usability of computer interfaces through colors for Low Vision users. It describes the methodology used, the 3 web interfaces tested for usability with the users in question, showing the results for the development of a prototype interface with colors as the main aspect. The prototype developed is presented with the usability test carried out with it. As a result of the work, a proposed color model is presented that includes Low Vision users in the construction and upgrading of computer interfaces, aimed at the usability of web interfaces. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
