Outline of Final Research Achievements

The Finger Braille teaching system using Windows tablet PC was developed. The 10 inches and 7 inches Android tablets were adopted and the teaching interfaces were designed. The program of speech recognition and retrieving Kana characters was developed on the Android tablet. By changing the combination of background colors and dot patterns, the emotion teaching interfaces to express joy, sadness and anger were developed.
