Photos: Digital tech for the disabled

Every year since 2003, the South Korean government has commissioned designers to come up with technologies to help enable people with physical disabilities to work with computers and other electronics devices. The government then picks the most promising prototypes and builds more prototypes to conduct feasible testing.

These are the 10 prototypes chosen this year by the Ministry of Information and Communication and Korea Agency for Digital Opportunity & Promotion. If testing goes well, they could make their way to homes and offices.

This is the SenseView, an enlarged-view tabletop reader, which produces an extra-large view of images and documents on a computer screen monitor for people with low vision.
