Screen reader
A
screen reader
is a
software application
that attempts to identify and interpret what is being displayed on the screen (or, more accurately, sent to
standard output
, whether a
video monitor
is present or not). This interpretation is then re-presented to the user with
text-to-speech
, sound icons, or a
Braille output device
. Screen readers are a form of
assistive technology
(AT) potentially useful to people who are
blind
,
visually impaired
,
illiterate
or
learning disabled
, often in combination with other AT, such as
screen magnifiers
.
