| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We propose a pen-based note-taking system for blind user with acquired blindness, which is named the‘Pen-Talker'. A blind novice user with acquired blindness is able to input Japanese characters directly instead of a keyboard without well training by using the‘Pen-Talker'.
We also investigate a higher recognition engine based on the hybrid recognition, which is integration of on-line and off-line recognition algorithm, and we restructure the input interface by the tablet PC with a voice assistance function. Screen information is given to user via built-in a screen reader.
