Description:

The Gnopernicus project enables users with limited vision, or no
vision, to use the GNOME 2 desktop and GNOME/GTK+-2 applications
effectively. By providing automated focus tracking and fullscreen
magnification, Gnopernicus will aid low-vision GNOME users, and its
screen reader features will allow low-vision and blind users access to
standard GTK+2 and Java-based GUI applications via speech and Braille
output. By leveraging GNOME 2's built-in accessibility framework,
Gnopernicus makes interacting with applications more efficient for
these users, and enables use of the GNOME 2 desktop for some users who
otherwise would have no access to GNOME.
