APPLICATION OF COMPUTERS IN IMPROVING THE LIFE AND WORK OF THE BLIND AND VISUALLY IMAIRED PERSONS

Većina ljudi na ovom svijetu rođena je sa svim osjetilima ali je veliki postotak ljudi „zakinut“ za jedno ili više njih. Sljepoća i slabovidnost su uvijek bili i biti će jedni od težih invaliditeta, stoga je neophodno pratiti potrebe i probleme slijepih i slabovidnih osoba. Da bi neka osoba bila neovisna potrebno je osigurati određene uvijete. Upravo je moderna tehnologija jedna od njih koja olakšava život slijepoj i slabovidnoj osobi , kako u slobodno vrijeme tako i na poslovnom planu. Ideja ovog završnog rada bila je dati uvid u asistivnu tehnologiju koja ljudima s oštećenjem vida omogućuje korištenje računala.Most people in this world are born with all the senses, but a large percentage of people are missing one or more of them. Blindness and amblyopia has always been and will be one of the most severe disabilities, so it is necessary to monitor the needs and problems of blind or visually impaired people. In order for a person to be independent, it is necessary to provide certain conditions. Modern technology is one of them that makes life easier for a blind and low vision person, both in their free time and in business. The idea of this final paper was to give an insight into the assistive technology that allows people with visual impairments to use computers
