Gesture-Based Browsing of Mathematics

This paper is introducing a new concept which is combining gestures and speech in applications to help people navigate through Mathematica notebooks. The application can be used by all people, but it is targeting visually impaired people specifically. Starting from the background of gestures, speech and all the offered tools to help blind people till we reach the challenges that we met in our approach is all covered in this thesis. On the basis of the $1 gesture recognition algorithm our definition of gestures started and advanced to include the enhancements that took place in the $1 gesture recognition itself. Introducing fresh new ideas as a future research. Showing the connection of the phrase “Application for visually impaired people” to many other scientific fields and specifically to mathematics. Moreover mentioning the importance of mathematics and its different software tools that were made to help visually impaired people, is all covered in this content.
