Ang: Release of GEM (GEstures with Mouse)

[Mats Lundälv <mats lundalv vgregion se>]

Hi Leena,

 

Thanks for this interesting additional contribution to the long list of previous ones from CDAC, Mumbai, and thanks for the inspiring presentations at the recent AEGIS conference in Brussels !!

 

Couldn't it be of mutual value to make your work part of and visible in the Raising the Floor initiative (http://raisingthefloor.org/)?

 

I will be particularly keen to look more at your contributions for users with cognitive difficulties. Great that this is addressed together with the tools for users with visual and physical impairments!

When looking through all exciting stuff at http://www.cdacmumbai.in/accessibility I also find this one that is new to me:

Anumaan: It is an open source predictive text entry system to aid people with motor disabilities. More details about Anumaan can be accessed at – http://www.cdacmumbai.in/anumaan .  

 

Eitan, will this not be a very strong candidate for cross-fertilisation and perhaps integration with the Caribou project?

 

Best wishes,

Mats
