• A form of assistive technology that is essential to people who are blind, as well as useful to people who are visually impaired, illiterate, or have a learning disability. Screen readers are software applications that attempt to convey what people with normal eyesight see on a display to their users via non-visual means, like text-to-speech, sound icons, or a Braille device. They do this by applying a wide variety of techniques that include interacting with dedicated Accessibility APIs, using various operating system features (like inter-process communication and querying user interface properties), and employing hooking techniques. ← Wikipedia
