This project aims to develop new assistive technologies that will enable blind people to explore and analyse data more readily. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the fields of assistive technology, multimodal interfaces, dialogue systems and natural language understanding and generation. The expected outcome of the project is an innovative conversational agent that uses a mix of speech and tactile graphics to communicate with a blind user and proactively assists with data analysis tasks. This should provide significant benefits, as it will overcome barriers to data analysis and exploration by blind people that currently restrict access to government, health and personal data, and limit employment opportunities.

该项目旨在开发新的辅助技术，使盲人能够更容易地探索和分析数据。该项目预计将在辅助技术，多模式界面，对话系统和自然语言理解和生成领域产生新的知识。 该项目的预期成果是一个创新的对话代理，使用语音和触觉图形的混合与盲人用户进行沟通，并主动协助数据分析任务。 这将带来巨大的好处，因为它将克服盲人在数据分析和探索方面的障碍，这些障碍目前限制了对政府、健康和个人数据的访问，并限制了就业机会。
