Engaging Communities Meaningfully in Defining Disability Representation for AI Image Generation

Media representations of people with disabilities profoundly influence societal perceptions, yet have historically been absent, stereotyped, or inaccurate. As AI-generated visual media becomes increasingly prevalent, there is a critical opportunity to address these misrepresentations. Responding to the lack of collect…

The ORBIT India Dataset: Understanding the Challenges of Collecting a Disability-First AI Dataset in Low-Resource Environments

Computer vision systems are increasingly used by blind individuals to navigate their lives, helping, for example, locate objects such as doors or chairs. Yet these recognition systems do not work for many personal objects a blind user might want to find, such as keys or a special notebook. In response, efforts created…

Exploring the Experiences of Individuals Who are Blind or Low-Vision Using Object-Recognition Technologies in India

Assistive technologies, such as smartphone-based object-recognition (OR) apps, provide visual assistance to people who are blind or low-vision to enable increased independent participation in society. While previous research has explored the functional accessibility of object-recognition technologies, little attention…

"Put Your Hands Up": How Joint Attention Is Initiated Between Blind Children And Their Sighted Peers

Initiating joint attention (JA) is a fundamental first step in social interactions. In sighted individuals, it relies predominantly on visual cues, such as gaze and hand gestures. These features can reduce opportunities for blind and visually impaired (BVI) and sighted people to interact. Understanding the strategies…

Weaving Sound Information to Support Real-Time Sensemaking of Auditory Environments: Co-Designing with a DHH User

Current AI sound awareness systems can provide deaf and hard of hearing people with information about sounds, including discrete sound sources and transcriptions. However, synthesizing AI outputs based on DHH people’s ever-changing intents in complex auditory environments remains a challenge. In this paper, we describ…

Social Sense-making with AI: Designing an Open-ended AI experience with a Blind Child

AI technologies are often used to aid people in performing discrete tasks with well-defined goals (e.g., recognising faces in images). Emerging technologies that provide continuous, real-time information enable more open-ended AI experiences. In partnership with a blind child, we explore the challenges and opportuniti…

Engagement with Mental Health Screening on Mobile Devices: Results from an Antenatal Feasibility Study

Perinatal depression (PND) affects up to 15% of women within the United Kingdom and has a lasting impact on a woman's quality of life, birth outcomes and her child's development. Suicide is the leading cause of maternal mortality. However, it is estimated that at least 50% of PND cases go undiagnosed. This paper prese…

“I can do everything but see!” – How People with Vision Impairments Negotiate their Abilities in Social Contexts

This research takes an orientation to visual impairment (VI) that does not regard it as fixed or determined alone in or through the body. Instead, we consider (dis)ability as produced through interactions with the environment and configured by the people and technology within it. Specifically, we explore how abilities…
