Project Goal

Turn a regular Android tablet into a dedicated audio book player that can be easily used by visually impaired and the elderly.

Assumptions

  • used at home,
  • focused on audio book playback, not music,
  • controlled with imprecise gestures and subject to accidental touch,
  • the user can see something but isn't able to make out letters or small UI controls,
  • only a single function of the device (runs in kiosk-like mode, no access to other applications).

Status

The main functionality has been implemented and the app is available in the Play Store.

See the website for details on the main features.
