Auditory Menus

• Spearcons-  brief sounds that are created by speeding up spoken words in a particular way

• Spindex - a speech-based index used to help a user know where they are in a long auditory menu

• Auditory Scroll Bars - One, two, or three sounds can be used to convey the size of a list, and the user’s current location in that list. This serves as a scroll bar.
