Pen-based Electronic Mail System for the Blind
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a pen-based Japanese character input system for the blind (particularly persons with acquired blindness). The user of this system is able to directly input Japanese characters without using a keyboard. This system is composed of a personal computer and a control board with an electric tablet. The blind person is able to get the screen information by using a voice synthesizer. We have investigated the various problems when the blind person edits the document by using this system and solved those problems. From the experimental results, we have confirmed that our proposed system makes easy to input Japanese characters for the novice blind user without the training. We apply to the electronic mail system for the blind person by utilizing this system.
