Abstract

Recently, technology has been advancing and making some aspects of life simpler. Most people have an intelligent mobile device. These devices have applications that support users to perform various tasks. However, these applications are developed for users who don't have any type of disability. This chapter focuses on making use of some tools that exist within the area of software engineering (SE) and user experience (UX) with the aim of developing an interactive software system (ISS). It is expected that this ISS will support people with visual disabilities to learn Braille. To develop the ISS, the authors use modified usability and UX evaluation methods for blind people. The methodology to be followed is based on the ISO15288: 2015 standard of the SE. The methods used to perform the evaluation tests with blind users are card sorting and thinking aloud. Based on the results, it is observed that the ISS complies with most of the UX factors, such as ease of use, accessibility, and utility, so they expect the ISS to be usable for blind people.
