Abstract

The TiM project intends to develop and to adapt computer games for visually impaired children. To describe the user’s needs is the first step of this project. This analysis will allow us to define two important points: the soft architecture & the authoring tools and the computer Human Interface for children and the resources (audio, tactile,...). This paper presents TiM’s approach concerning to human dimension and the advance concerning adapted games.
