Abstract
This paper presents the mobile version of Rich Book Player, a Digital Talking Book player for mobile devices. The mobile version is based on a desktop version with multimodal and adaptive features. The development of the mobile version tried to retain the look and feel of the desktop version and as much as possible of the features required for an advanced Digital Talking Book player. We describe how the intrinsic characteristics of mobile devices impacted the performance and interaction aspects of the application.
