Rakesh, I am interested to know if he can use his fingers well to read Braille? If yes, then for him Braille display could be a good option.
It seems that it would be a while before he can use computer proficiently, so scribe would still be a good option. -----Original Message----- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of rakesh negi Sent: 12 October 2009 01:08 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: [AI] suggestion needed Hai list, Couple of days ago, I got a typical case to handle. I came across a person who is suffering from multiple disability. Currently he is pursuing his tenth class & his care taker has a wish to provide him with computer education. so that he will be able to attempt his exams through computer. I quite appreciate the view of his care taker but there are some impediment which makes uncomfortable him to learn computer. He is not able to recognize the speech of any TTS. He can recognize only when people communicates to him through high speech. When I discussed about it with his care taker then he told me that he is suffering from multiple problems. He has problem of not being able to hear clearly, has low vision & not able to sit properly. He told me that he did all the things for him example he provided him with large keyboard, he also tried with magnifier software but all these things were wasted. He also knows that the boy is not able to keep his fingers correctly on keyboard. After knowing all these things, I suggested him to use talking typer, which would help him to keep him in touch of keyboard. I know that its not a proper solution of this problem. But I don't want to break his hopes & according to me only talking typer is a software which he can use to settle his fingers permanently on keyboard. Here what I am trying to convey is that all people in the list are surely experienced and better as you have seen life & faced more situations like this. So I wish to request you all to come up with some valuable suggestions as it can bring change in ones' life. -- Rakesh Negi contact NO: 9968368616 To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
