Add features for the poor sighted ?!
Remark: such a system could also be useful to Non-Blindes e.g. Nearly-Blindes and should therfore work with some graphic; I know a Nearly-Blind (3% Rest) who cuts his videos on the desktop, but he cannot read street names on the street. For such people some basic colors are very useful, e.g. red screen: upcoming barrier vs. green screen: everything OK Give Accessibility also to a blind System!

- Actually we always thought that the cellphone would stay in your pocket, but this might be a usefull add-on. At the moment poor sighted persons are supported if using a combined screenreader with text magnifier functionality, e.g. Talks&Zooms.

Replace recurring text by sounds
Wenn im Text "in 50 Metern" vorkommt, dann könnte man das durch eine Tonfolge ersetzen, in diesem Fall z.B. durch eine Quinte aufwärts: Pieps (Ton tiefes C) - Pieps (Ton darüber liegendes G)> Wenn man den Ton sicher erkennt ersetzt man weitere, also für "In 30 Metern" mit einer Terz: Pieps (Ton tiefes C) - Pieps (Ton darüber liegendes E) und so weiter. Natürlich nur, wenn man möchte.
Nice to have Lulu-Ann
- As blindes estimate distances very hard, it makes more sense to tell them: At the next crossing - they hear that! (Wolfgang Wasserburger 13:54, 19 April 2010 (UTC))
- This is a feature for points of interest - unfortunately there is not a crossing available at each pub...
- The assumption that blindes estimate distances very hard might be right for blind born in particular, but not at all for persons that became blind at adult age. I know a blind persons that surprises me by correct estimations how far the railway lines are away. Blind persons often know the number of steps rather than meters, but very accurate. --Lulu-Ann 18:36, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
No graphics
There shall be text only. The text shall not disapper, but scroll up, so that it can be recalled with the screenreader.
Highest 1 Lulu-Ann
- As the system probably will also be used by nearly Blindes, it helps them very much to have some basic graphics. (Wolfgang Wasserburger 13:19, 19 April 2010 (UTC))
- And it causes immensely more work, speed and memory in programming, downloading and rendering. Feel free to start your own project with graphics. This one is without by definition. --Lulu-Ann 18:40, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
| Route calculation preferences
The route with the least street crossings without traffic lights shall be prefered.
High Lulu-Ann
- Should also differ between traffic lights and traffic lights with accoustic signals for Blindes - not all traffic lights are useful for Blindes! (Wolfgang Wasserburger 13:47, 19 April 2010 (UTC))
- LoroDux is already planned to differ between uncontrolled crossings, islands, zebra crossings, toucan crossings, pelican crossings, pegasus crossings and crossings with sound and vibration.
- It is simply not true that non sound non vibration traffic signals are not worthful to blind persons. They learn how to detect the walk phase in the mobility training. --Lulu-Ann 18:45, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
