Remote web browsing via the phone with TeleWeb

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

TeleWeb is an assistive voice-enabled application empowering users to remotely access the Web through the most ubiquitous device - the phone. The uniqueness of the technology is that it enables users to gain access to information from almost anywhere via a plain, old-fashioned telephone. TeleWeb users will be able to call their own personal numbers, authenticate themselves, and then use speech and phone key-pad to remotely browse the Web on their own PCs. TeleWeb may especially appeal to people with vision loss, as well as older adults who may find the phone interface to be more familiar and easier to use. In this paper, I describe the TeleWeb approach and the interface.
