摘要
Presently, computers have become a part of everyone's daily life, including the visually impaired people. Keyboard, being the only input device for using a computer, is not friendly for the visually impaired. The computer skills of these people go unutilized since they find it difficult to work using the standard keyboard. Several companies today market alternative keyboards for helping the visually impaired to type, yet they are not suitable for them. Thus, the technical aim of this paper describes an innovative idea for eliminating the above said issue by using the existing QWERTY keyboard to enhance the interaction of the visually impaired people with standard computers thereby eliminating all of the practical and mental constraints.
