Android Note Manager Application for People with Visual Impairment
This addresses accessibility for visually impaired individuals, but it is incremental as it builds on existing mobile and Braille technologies.
The paper tackles the problem of note-taking for visually impaired smartphone users by developing an Android application that allows them to type notes in Grade 1 Braille and save them externally, with the result being an intelligent system that activates reminders or calls contacts based on note content.
With the outburst of smart-phones today, the market is exploding with various mobile applications. This paper proposes an application using which visually impaired people can type a note in Grade 1 Braille and save it in the external memory of their smart-phone. The application also shows intelligence by activating reminders and/or calling certain contacts based on the content in the notes.
