Whisper Input was designed from the ground up with accessibility in mind. Through a simple keystroke mechanism (Option key press/lift), visually impaired users can rely on keyboard feedback to perform all voice input operations without the need to rely on a visual interaction interface. This minimalist operation logic drastically reduces the threshold of technology usage.
The project team is developing a dedicated macOS client that will further optimize the sound feedback system and shortcut settings. These features enable visually impaired people to independently perform the entire process from voice entry to text editing. Whisper Input offers a zero-cost alternative to specialized assistive devices on the market that require complex setup.
The emergence of this tool is changing the digital lives of the visually impaired community: they can now write documents, reply to e-mails and take notes on their own, greatly enhancing their autonomy in accessing and expressing information. This social value goes far beyond the usual technological innovations.
