Thanks for your response and interest in our post. We are at the information
gathering and planning stage of our research at the moment so we don't have any
results to share as yet. We will be looking at alternative methods of displaying
world elements (e.g., tactile, auditory) and at alternative methods of
navigating through the environments (a good example is SGI's Webspace which has
keyboard alternatives to the navigation tools allowing us to map those onto
alternative input devices, also their "seek tool" makes navigation easier for
people with poor coordination).
We will be setting up a listserve to keep people informed about progress in this
area. Also, if you have questions while in the process of creating your digital
city you could pass them by us for our suggestions.
Thanks again for your interest.
