Dave Williams Demonstrates an easier solution to a range of blind and low vision access needs With Dolphin Computer Access Versi
The Accessible World News Wire, Indianapolis, Indiana USA
During the Accessible World’s Tek Talk online event this week, attention will be focused upon how the latest update of Dolphin’s screen reading, screen magnification and reading and writing tools opens the world of information to those with vision loss.
Dave Williams, Blindness Products Manager For Dolphin Computer Access Limited, will provide a practical demonstration of new enhancements in Version 10 of the Hal screen reader, Lunar screen magnifier and the Supernova screen reader/magnifier. This will include the Dolphin Setup Wizard for configuring magnification, speech, Braille and general settings from one place, the Dolphin Product Improvement Programme that enables users to shape the future development of Dolphin access software, the Dolphin Virtual Focus that makes Text selection possible from almost anywhere in Windows, powerful web page specific settings, as well as comprehensive support for the Winamp graphic Equalizer and for Firefox 3.0.
You will not want to miss this opportunity to learn directly from a talented blind communicator that is committed to using his diverse range of skills and experience in assistive technology and community media to provide solutions which empower blind people with effective access to main stream technology.
