Visually impaired people are unable to independently operate many commercially available programs that run on the graphic based Microsoft Windows 95 operating system. This lack of access significantly limits the educational and business opportunities available to visually impaired people. The goal of the Knowledge Database Graphical User Interface Descriptive Environment (KD GUIDE) project is to design, develop, and test custom software that will make most current and future inaccessible Windows 95 programs accessible. The accessibility is achieved by software which recognizes patterns used in the inaccessible programs. The information about the inaccessible programs is stored in a knowledge database where it can be quickly retrieved or updated. This research is being conducted by Automated Functions, Inc. (AFI) which has many years of experience in the design and development of systems to assist visually impaired people. The research team is expert in Windows 95 program design and development, knowledge database technology, adaptive aid technology, and understands the needs of visually impaired people. The KD GUIDE system will enable thousands of visually impaired people to independently use the same Windows 95 programs as their sighted peers. It will have a positive impact on the lives of visually impaired computer users throughout the world. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS: The KD GUIDE project will design, develop, and test software which will make current Windows 95 programs accessible to visually impaired people. The Phase III software package will be marketed to rehabilitation agencies, schools, and visually impaired individuals throughout the U.S. and abroad. This system will have a huge impact on the educational and business opportunities of visually impaired people throughout the world.

视力受损的人无法独立操作许多 在基于图形的Microsoft Windows 95操作系统。这种缺乏准入的情况严重限制了 为视障人士提供的教育和商业机会 人知识数据库图形用户界面的目标 描述性环境（KD GUIDE）项目是设计，开发， 测试自定义软件，这将使大多数当前和未来无法访问 可访问Windows 95程序。可访问性是通过软件实现的 其识别在不可访问的程序中使用的模式。的 关于不可访问的程序的信息存储在知识库中。 数据库，可以快速检索或更新。 这项研究是由Automated Functions，Inc. (AFI)这 拥有多年的系统设计和开发经验， 帮助视障人士。研究团队是Windows专家 95程序设计与开发，知识库技术， 自适应辅助技术，并了解视障人士的需求 人KD GUIDE系统将使成千上万的视障人士 人们独立使用相同的Windows 95程序， 同龄人将对视障人士的生活产生积极影响 全世界的计算机用户。 拟议的商业应用： KD GUIDE项目将设计、开发和测试软件， 使视障人士可以使用当前的Windows 95程序。 第三阶段的软件包将销售给康复 机构，学校和视障人士在美国各地。 国内外这一制度将对教育产生巨大影响， 世界各地视障人士的商业机会。
