In this project we aim to develop a research program to deliver visual rehabilitation via low cost computing devices. The project has been set up by Ken Scott-Brown to bring together academics, clinicians and visual disability advocates, to create a foundation for developing the kinds of computer-based tools that the visually disabled and their health professionals will really want. This is a pump-priming project that will develop animated storyboards for subsequent development.
We have a conference paper published on this topic: Tapology-accepted
