RSS news reader for people with macular degeneration launched
A news feed for people with macular disease has been developed by Royal Holloway, University of London, to enable them to keep up with the news. It is designed to support the use of reading with the ‘eccentric viewing’ technique, whereby the individual holds their gaze slightly away from the text that scrolls from right-to-left like a news ticker.
The reader can be used to read a growing number of national and international news sources, including BBC News. The Guardian and The Daily Mail. To find out more about the EV News Reader and try it for yourself, visit the Macular Society website.
