Abstract

The invention relates to systems and methods for enabling low-vision users to interact with a touch-sensitive secondary display. Disclosed herein are systems and methods that enable low-vision users to interact with touch-sensitive secondary displays. An example method includes: displaying, on a primary display, a first user interface for an application and displaying, on a touch-sensitive secondary display, a second user interface that includes a plurality of application-specific affordances that control functions of the application. Each respective affordance is displayed with a first display size. The method also includes: detecting, via the secondary display, an input that contacts at least one application-specific affordance. In response to detecting the input and while it remains incontact with the secondary display, the method includes: (i) continuing to display the first user interface on the primary display and (ii) displaying, on the primary display, a zoomed-in representation of the at least one application-specific affordance. The zoomed-in representation is displayed with a second display size that is larger than the first display size.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosed embodiments relate to touch-sensitive secondary display devices, and more particularly, to improved techniques for enabling low-vision users to interact with touch-sensitive secondary displays. Background technique [0002] The occlusion problem often prevents many users from understanding and using features available through touch-sensitive input devices that are also used to display affordances. For example, a user of a touch-sensitive secondary display, which may be located above a physical keyboard, may not be able to view certain affordances because their fingers obscure or cover the affordances while they are displayed at the secondary display. Furthermore, the affordances displayed in such secondary displays are typically small. These problems are particularly acute for low vision users who may have difficulty seeing certain affordances displayed at the secondary display, and these difficulties are exacerbated and amplified by the...
