Multimodal communication for blind people in IT

Blind users of electronic devices, from watches to computers, are excluded from the commonly implemented graphical user interface. In contrast to previous work, where graphics were output via speech output or via Braille and the user input is done via speech input or keyboard, the purpose of this work is to link unknown and new forms of communication with different input-output devices for situation-dependent multimodal human-machine communication. Special attention is given to the development of new forms of human-machine communication, taking into account the special needs of the addressed group of persons. Ease of use, as well as the lowest possible requirements for the necessary hardware are, in addition to the broad spectrum of tasks, the general conditions of the project.
