BarrierBreak Technologies launches SaySo to empower the learning and visually impaired
Reading and Writing are the main challenge for people with disabilities Mumbai, India - 23rd, August, 2012. - BarrierBreak Technologies (www.barrierbreak.com) and Dolphin Computer Access (www.yourdolphin.com ) in continuing their endeavour to provide solutions to the learning impaired and visually impaired launches SaySo in India. SaySo is an easy to use software toolbar that aides learning impaired and visually impaired students with their reading and writing. Using human sounding voices, SaySo reads aloud as you type, and offers advanced spell checking and AutoCorrect options, so you can confidently update your online status or write your school project knowing you've made no mistakes. Whether you're reading documents, books, emails or web pages, SaySo highlights the words as they are spoken, focusing your attention and building your understanding of the text. SaySo saves documents as MP3s (or DAISY books) that you can 'read' on the move using your phone, MP3 player or DAISY player. SaySo also allows you to scan a printed text book or take a PDF file and convert it to MP3 (or Daisy books). "The challenges faced by people with learning and visual impairment, often make them drop out of school", says Shilpi Kapoor, Managing Director, BarrierBreak Technologies. "We believe that SaySo needs to be provided in the schools and colleges so that the child has the right assistive aid to overcome their challenges." SaySo Product Manager, Simon Kitchen, adds "A successful education can set learners up for the rest of their life. However, difficulties with reading and writing mean that many learners do not have the opportunity to reach their full potential, and this is where SaySo can help. Dolphin is delighted to be working in partnership with BarrierBreak Technologies to empower learners with vision and print impairments in India to succeed at school, college, and beyond." Regards!

We don't always know what God's plans are for us. We just know that His ways are not our ways, but His ways are always best!
