The design guideline for dyslexics-friendly Chinese ATM interface

Published: 10 January 2019 Publication History

Abstract

This study explores the difficulties for people with dyslexia to use the Chinese ATM interface and proposes improvement guidelines. In the experiment results of operating the existing Chinese ATM interfaces, the most common problems found are: (1) the options have low attractiveness, (2) there are too much information in the options, (3) the text is too dense, and (4) unable to understand the instruction of the buttons. After conducting an assessment on the revised friendly interface designed by this study, the following results are obtained: (1) when designing, the operating distance needs to be defined so the font size suitable for dyslexics can more accurately determined, (2) when designing the interface, use light color for background and dark color for foreground, and (3) when doing the related layouts, a layered approach can be used to reduce the number of options as well as the search load.
