Abstract

See full text

A spoken interface is described for assisting a visually impaired user to obtain audible information and interact with elements displayed on a display screen. The spoken interface also enables access and control of other elements that are hidden by other windows. The interface receives user input data representing user inputs received by an input device and uses a movable selector to select an element of an application. The element selected by the selector may be either an editing type element or non-editing type element. The interface provides audio information regarding the selected editing or non-editing element and enables interaction with the selected element.
