However, as mobile phones get more advanced and their interfaces become more complicated, new design recommendations and guidelines need to be developed to serve the elderly needs.<br \/>\nIn this project we distilled guidelines and design recommendations targeting elderly users&#8217; needs. Then, we used these guidelines to implement a prototype user interface that takes Arab elderly requirements into considerations. We then evaluated the developed interface with a set of Arab elderly people to determine its appropriateness for the target audience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1538\/23980272829_24bb387019_b.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VIEW DETAIL<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seminar Title : &#8220;Design and Development of an Arabic Interface for Touch-based Mobile Phones for Elderly People&#8221; Date : 14 January 2016&nbsp;(Thursday) Time : 10.00 am &#8211; 12.00 noon Venue : CSNano Meeting Room, Centre for Sustainable Nanomaterials (CSNano), Ibnu Sina Institute for Scientific &amp; Industrial Research (ISI-SIR), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Skudai Hend S.
