5. Current Situation JAWS – Screen reader for Windows
MORSE CODE INPUT INTERFACE (DARCI TOO)
Serial interface, drivers needed, not user friendly, not portable, external powered, difficult to use, not flexible
6. Our Solution Retain JAWS as a screen reading device
Morse Code Input Device
He already knows it
Fast and sub-cognitive, much like typing
USB connectivity
No drivers/software necessary
1, 2, or 3 different input signals for flexible input
Visual and Audio feedback
Speech Recognition possibility to help supplement Morse code input device
7. Potential Problems Interfacing BasicX controller with USB controller
Reliability of switches
Interfacing with JAWS
Power
8. What we expect to learn Problem Analysis
Hardware design
Programming of microcontroller in Basic
Testing
Time Management
9. Deliverable goals STAMPS processor based module
NetMedia BasicX microcontroller
Cheap
Easy
1/2/3 Input signals
1 signal, time dependent for each dot or dash
2 signals, time dependent for each character
3 signals, not time dependent
Visual and audio feedback with each input
USB interface
Portable and reliable
10. Brief Timeline
