Qualcomm developing phone for the blind
Qualcomm and Project RAY have teamed-up to develop a multi-use smartphone for the visually impaired.
Dubbed the Project RAY phone, the Android-based device uses a special interface that doesn’t require visual operation. The interface allows users to touch any location on the screen, which will then become the starting point for selecting a feature.
Services include texting, phone calls, navigation, social network services, object recognition, remote assistance, audio book reading, and more.
“We believe the Project RAY device will enhance the ability of blind and visually impaired people to access resources and information independently,” said Don Rosenberg, executive VP and general counsel for Qualcomm.
