Resumo

Recently, the social inclusion and technical aid to assure autonomy to people with disabilities are getting attention all over the world. This work presents a display design for accessible interaction in home area networks. Based on a research on the accessible interfaces state of the art, an interface design was proposed. This interface was implemented over a Tablet that controls domestic devices through a home network controller prototype. In order to evaluate the design, a research was conducted, interviewing people with disabilities in Brazil. This research consolidated a feasible accessible interface to control home area networks pointing out the main requirements considering a diversified group of impairments.
