Beschreibung:
NonVisual Desktop Access ist ein Screenreader, der Blinden und Sehbehinderten als PC-Schnittstelle dient -> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ScreenreaderNonVisual Desktop Access (NVDA) is a free and open-source screen reader for the Windows Operating System, enabling blind and vision impaired people to use their computers for no more cost than the computer and Operating System itself. Started in April 2006, it has grown to become quite usable as a day-to-day screen reader, enabling the user to do most tasks they would need to. It is not as stable or as bug-free as some of the commercial screen readers, but since December 2006 the creator of NVDA has been able to use NVDA full-time as his primary screen reader, finally giving up his original commercial product.
Providing feedback by synthetic speech, NVDA allows the user to access and interact with all parts of the Windows operating system, such as:
Browsing the web (with Internet Explorer)
Reading and writing documents with programs such as Wordpad or Microsoft Word
Sending and receiving email with Outlook Express
Using command-line programs in Dos windows
Producing basic spreadsheets in Microsoft Excel
General computer management through My Computer / Windows Explorer, Control Panel applets, and other generic Windows tasks
Diese Teile sind meistens schweineteuer, so dass dieses Programm eine echte Alternative werden kann, auch wenn es nach Angaben des Authors noch nicht perfekt ist. Als Sprachsyntheziser kann die unter Win 2000/XP eingebaute SAPI5-Sprachengine dienen, alternativ auch das freie eSpeak -> http://espeak.sourceforge.net/
Interessant ist die Tatsache, dass inzwischen die Bedeutung sowohl von MS, Mozilla, Adobe usw. erkannt wurde und diese NVDA unterstützen, um den Einsatz in künftigen Programmen und auch in Windows7 zu sichern!
