Many of the activities that integrate software and services entail the creation and use of diagrams. The presentation and access to these diagrams are done via visual interaction and are thus inaccessible to the blind. In practice, this restriction is a limitation that prevents access to training and highly qualified jobs.
Graces contemplates designing a support software tool that will let the blind access this type of contents with a view to enabling their access to specialised training and improving their professional prospects. The tool will likewise be oriented for interoperability with potential integration with other users.
Its purpose is to develop a concept test for a software tool that will assist the blind in accessing graphs, charts and diagrams used in software engineering and services.
