One interesting stall that caught the attention of many an inquisitive visitor at the Chennai Book Fair was Stall 48 S, that highlighted the various software available for the visually impaired. Volunteers who manned the stall, explained
the various electronic facilities available for the visually challenged in the Digital
Era. The Karna Vidya Technology Centre, with the patronage of the Rotaract Club of Drishti, gives counselling for free to all those who visit its stall.
They give a demonstration on the DAISY software, [Digitally Accessible Information System] where voice
and words synchronise, port, and read aloud in the best and easily accessible
way, is a very interactive software for the visually challenged. Apart from
this, there are thousands of Digital EBooks available exclusively for the
visually challenged, and the availability of Talkback software for androids and tablets, and learning devices like Math pads, Braille pads, etc.
