As visually-impaired students begin learning to read by way of Braille, many also are learning how to navigate their world with help from a white cane. A Lexington One teacher helped create a brand-new resource to take away some of the apprehension by introducing the cane in a fun way.
For the first time, Navraj Dhakal, a visually impaired person, touched Braille cells that allow visually impaired people to read by feeling the raised dots at a stall operated by Bright Star Society, an organization that works for the blind, at CAN Info-Tech 2014.
After Dhakal learned about its benefits, he decided to buy the device. But when he heard the price--Rs 260,000--he realized that it was beyond his means. But he was more disappointed to know that Braille cells are not available in Nepal.
A NEW application has been developed to help dyslexic and visually impaired train passengers.
Southern and Gatwick Express have launched the app on their websites – www.southernrailway.com and www.gatwickexpress.com – which is designed to help users access content with much more ease.
The system, called Recite, allows those with visual impairment and/or dyslexia to customise the site the way they need it to work for them.
Minugurulu, a movie under the banner of Respect Creations would be organising a 5k walk, ‘Seeing beyond sight’, in support of the visually impaired community. Addressing the media on Thursday, Ayodhya Kumar Krishnamsetty, director of Minugurulu said, “There is not much awareness about the problems faced by the visually impaired community. They can see more than what we can see. We do not need eyes to visualise things. After working with visually impaired in my film, I have realised that it is easier to work with visually impaired rather than the abled ones. ”
A group of citizens, NGO Prayas Sanstha and a city mall have jointly organised a motivational programme 'Sevankur Little Champs' on January 12, in the city in which differently abled kids will share their stories with others.
During the programme, Avinash Saoji of Prayas Group, which connects different like-minded individuals and organisations to promote social change, will interact with the children.
