Abstract

The Rainbow Bridge is an EU-supported project that aims to teach Czech people with physical disabilities to benefit from voice technology products in their lives and prospective jobs. All products - voice control tools and dictation programs - have been developed in our lab during the last decade. At this stage, the main goal is to teach the target group how to use PCs in hands-free manner (though some have no previous experience with computers), how to adapt the tools to their specific speech abilities and how to acquire the skills that can be useful for their potential employers. One of the lecturers is a quadriplegic person who herself has been using our voice products for almost 5 years.
