3-What is screen readers software?
A screen reader is a
software program that
allows blind and low
vision individuals to read
the
content on a computer
screen with a voice
synthesizer or braille
display.
The screen reader is
the interface between the
user and the computer
operating system and its
applications

4-What is Screen magnification
software?
A screen magnification
software is computer
software that enlarges
everything on a
computer
screen. Because the
screen image is
enlarged, the user only
sees part of the screen
at a time.

5-What is SAFA : Screen Access for
All?
screen access for all
(SAFA) is an open
source initiative to
develop a screen
reading software
for the vision impaired
persons to read and
write in their language
of choice.

6-What is Low Vision Devices Kit?
This low vision devices kit
is designed for the
professionals starting low
vision careThis kit
contains optical devices,
filters,nonoptical devices,
vision stimulation
materials visual acuity
charts for distance and
near & Electronic
Magnifiers.

7-What is RUBY (Handheld Video
Magnifier)?
The RUBY handheld
video magnifier is small
and lightweight enough
to fit into a pocket or
purse, yet provides the
magnification you need
to help you read or see
details, whether you are
at library or home or
work

8-What is Plex talk device?
Plex talk device is
DAISY(Digital
accessible information
system (DAISY) is a
technical standard for
digital audiobooks,
periodicals, and
computerized text) Book
player, Mp3 Player and
voice recorder

9-What is Keyboard Learning
Software?
TypeAbility Keyboard
learning Software is a typing
and computer program for
students using
JAWS (screen reader) or
MAGic (magnification
software). This program will
help students
master keyboarding skills,
including all the letters, and
punctuation; students will
also learn how
to navigate and edit within
dialog boxes and text
documents

10-What is OCR Scanning Software?
Optical Character Recognition systems are one of the tools that allow
people who are blind or visually impaired to access printed
information,There are three essential elements to these
systems: scanning, optical character recognition, often referred to as OCR,
and the reading of the text via synthesized speech.
To use this technology, users require three components: a flatbed
scanner, a PC with a compatible sound card, and a specialized OCR
software program with speech output.

11-What is A Braille Note Taker
machine ?
A Braille Note Takeris a
specialized computer
that can both accept
input or commands in
Braille and output the
results in Speech and
Braille. It is primarily
used by those who are
blind

12-What is Index Braille BasicD V4
Printer?
Braille printers receive data from
computer devices and emboss
that information in braille onto
paper through the use of
solenoids that control embossing
pins. Braille printers typically print
on heavyweight paper and use
up more pages for the same
amount of information than pages
printed on a regular printer.
They are also slower and noisier.
Interpoint printers are printers
that emboss braille on both sides
of a page

13-What is Kibo XS device?
Kibo XS is a multi-lingual
scanning & reading device that
can seamlessly connect with
any PC/Computer/Laptop as
well any Android smartphone to
read any printed or handwritten
document in audio

14-What is PEARL Camera?
PEARL Is a portable
reading solution for blind
and vision-impaired
users. The folding camera
deploys in seconds to
connect to your PC and
snap a picture of your
printed material with an
array of human-sounding
voices.

15-What isWeb Accessibility Initiative
(WAI)?
The WAI seeks to make
the internet more
accessible to people
with auditory, cognitive,
neurological, physical,
speech and visual
impairments

16-what is 3D printing?
3D printing also called (additive manufacturing) is a process of making
three dimensional solid objects from a digital file.
The creation of a 3D printed object is achieved using additive
processes.
Additive process, where successive layers of material are laid down in
different shapes.
Objects can be of almost any shape or geometry, and are produced from
a 3D model or other Objects can be of almost any shape or geometry, and
are produced from a 3D model or other electronic data source

17- How does 3D Printing work?
First
step
A person creates a 3D
image of an item using
a computer-aided
design (CAD) software
program.
Second
step
The CAD
information
is sent to the
printer
third
step
The printer
forms the item
by depositing
the
material in
layers—starting
from the bottom
layer—onto a
platform . In
some cases
light or lasers
are used to
harden the
material.

18-what is the steps of 3D printing?
• THE STEPS OF 3D PRINTING
• A-Modeling
• B-Printing
• C-Finishing

A -Modeling
Modeling Additive manufacturing takes virtual blueprints
from computer aided design (CAD) or animation modeling
software and "slices" them into digital cross-sections for
the machine to successively use as a guideline for printing
and computer aided design animation modeling software

B-Printing
Printing To perform a print, the machine reads the design
and lays down successive layers of
liquid, powder, or sheet material to build the model from a
series of cross sections. These
layers, which correspond to the virtual cross sections from
the CAD model, are joined together or automatically fused
to create the final shape.
Advantage: Ability to create almost any shape
or geometric feature.

C-Finishing
• Finishing Though the printer-produced resolution is
sufficient for many applications, printing a slightly
oversized version of the desired object in standard
resolution, and then removing material with a higher-
resolution subtractive process can achieve a higher-
resolution

19-Why 3D printing in library?
According to a report from ALA, there are over 428 public library branches in
the united states that ofer 3D printers to the public
3D printing is an example of the type of resource that is transforming today's
libraries into cutting-edge learning hubs and giving communities access to
technologies that are having significant impact on such fields as scientific
research, architecture, manufacturing, engineering, healthcare and more

20-3D printing in San Mateo County
Libraries?
San Mateo County Libraries have embraced 3D printing
as a resource to all patrons, even transforming spaces to
accommodate increasing demand and developing an
online appointment system.
The team’s mission is “to encourage creative failures and
teach timeless skills through critical thinking, problem-
solving, STEAM activities, access to technology, and
fostering curiosity every step of the way.” Through one-on-
one sessions, sharing free resources such as Thingiverse
3D design files and providing access to Tinkercad, a
simple 3D design software staff inhas seen novice users
produce such items as toys, maps and even prosthetic
hands

21- 3D Printing in the Denver Public
Library ideaLABs ?
The 3D printing based on reservation and the respectation
of the reading of the full 3D Printer Policy with details.
The 3d printing in Denver public library ideaLABs is for
free and you have the permission to print anything
interested wiith far in harmful thing like weapons by using
a site like Thingiverse, Bld3r or use some of the lab's free
modeling software like Tinkercad, Blender or SketchUp to
make your own designs.

22-What is the benefits of 3D printing
or visually impaired?
3D printing has been introduced as an additional tool for visually
impaired people, along with braille and tactile models that help
them navigate the world around them using their sense of touch
to facilitate learning and education. These tools all share the
common characteristic of creating raised objects that visually
impaired people can use to read and visualize objects, maps,
drawings,game and more that they may miss out on due to their
impairment

23-conclusion
In conclusion, assistive technologies is essential to library because they
reduce the need for disabilities and enable the visually impaired to continue
his education and live equalsuch as 3D increasingly being used in libraries to
improve accessibility for visually impaired patrons. These technologies allow
libraries to create tactile versions of books and other materials, making it
possible for visually impaired individuals to access and engage with a wider
range of content. Additionally, 3D printing can also be used to create other
assistive devices such as braille labels and tactile maps. As technology
continues to advance, it is likely that we will see more libraries incorporating
these types of assistive technologies to improve accessibility and inclusivity
for all patrons.
