The ¡Ègnopernicus¡É 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¡Çs 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.
