Info about the Project
Many electronic devices, from desktop computers to mobile phones to DVD players, can be thought of as a menu of functions. These functions can be accessible to a blind user if the menus are spoken aloud. However, this is extremely inefficient, so we have been enhancing auditory menus with sophisticated text-to-speech, spearcons, spindex, and other audio extensions. These can also be applied in many different languages and research is ongoing to look at more language applications, including tonal types.
