Abstract

Twenty years ago, Telesensory, Mountain View, California was formed to develop and market technological aids for blind people. Its initial product was a spinoff device called the Optacon, an innovation that permitted the blind and the deaf-blind to read--not just braille transcriptions but anything in print. The Optacon combined optical and electronic technology and incorporated research performed at Stanford Research Institute under the sponsorship of NASA's Ames Research Center. Last year TeleSensory introduced an even more exciting aid for the blind, a second generation spinoff that not only permits the user to "read" printed words but also provides access to the electronic information available on most

20年前,位于加州山景城的Telesensory公司成立,旨在为盲人开发和销售技术辅助设备。它最初的产品是一款名为Optacon的衍生设备,这款创新产品让盲人和聋哑人能够阅读——不仅是盲文,还有任何印刷品。Optacon结合了光学和电子技术,并在美国宇航局艾姆斯研究中心的赞助下,在斯坦福研究所进行了研究。去年,TeleSensory为盲人推出了一款更令人兴奋的辅助设备,这是第二代衍生产品,它不仅允许用户“阅读”印刷文字,还提供了获取大多数设备上可用的电子信息的途径
