IVEO
The IVEO self-voicing tactile-audio system can open doors for people who are blind, low-vision or have learning disabilities by converting inaccessible visual documents into a format that can be read by touch and audio.

The IVEO Tactile-Audio system is perfect for professionals looking for easy and comprehensive methods to translate visual materials for those who are blind or low-vision.
IVEO is also designed to enable blind individuals to independently convert inaccessible visual documents to a format that can be read by touch and audio.
IVEO can also open doors for people with learning disabilities. When used with the Emprint Color Tactile Printer, IVEO documents can be read simultaneously through vision, audio and touch.
IVEO goes beyond the standard visual interface to a computer. Adding audio and touch makes delivery of information more complete - increasing retention and understanding. Plus, it makes materials more engaging.
IVEO is ideal for trading files. IVEO files are compact and can be read visually by standard web browsers like Internet Explorer and Netscape. That means there is no disturbance for visual-oriented people, yet the IVEO file can be totally accessible for people who need or prefer reading with the addition of audio and touch. Email or post on websites and those who seek audio or touch access can download the free IVEO Viewer to read the file in an interactive format.
