DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term goal of this proposed project is a commercial technology permitting mainstream authors easily to create and distribute a wide variety of one and two dimensional data plots that are easily accessible by all people including those who are blind or have other print disabilities. This would extend the ViewPlus IVEO technology to include virtually all static graphical information. The project is relevant to the mission of the National Eye Institute, because it could improve educational and professional opportunities for blind people as well as improve their quality of life. Phase I research is intended to prove feasibility of extending the ViewPlus IVEO Scalable Vector Graphics Viewer to include access to most conventional types of quantitative one and two dimensional data plots. Phase II would be used to develop authoring and importation tools to enable expanded commercialization by ViewPlus of the IVEO technology. Relevance to health: If all text and graphical information were distributed in accessible form, a great deal of health-related information would become far more accessible by people with print disabilities, including a considerable fraction of elderly people. Access to this and other information could also make a major improvement in their quality of life.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个拟议项目的长期目标是一种商业技术，允许主流作者轻松地创建和分发各种各样的一维和二维数据图，这些数据图易于所有人访问，包括盲人或其他印刷障碍者。这将扩展ViewPlus IVEO技术，以包括几乎所有的静态图形信息。该项目与国家眼科研究所的使命相关，因为它可以改善盲人的教育和职业机会，并提高他们的生活质量。第一阶段研究旨在证明扩展ViewPlus IVEO可扩展矢量图形查看器的可行性，以包括访问大多数常规类型的定量一维和二维数据图。第二阶段将用于开发创作和进口工具，以使ViewPlus能够扩大IVEO技术的商业化。与健康的相关性：如果所有文本和图形信息都以无障碍形式分发，那么大量与健康有关的信息将更容易被印刷品阅读障碍者获取，包括相当一部分老年人。获得这一信息和其他信息也可以大大改善他们的生活质量。
