Engineers at Google have developed Eyes Free an application that let’s you carry out some useful functions without looking at the screen. Very helpful for blind and low vision users, the app also makes it easy for all of us who want to do something without having to look at the screen – a great example of universal design. Congratulations to Google engineers T.V. Raman and Charles Chen who developed the application.
