This project explores options for developing Danish speaking talking aids for the blind as an alternate to visual communication. The project was carried out in Denmark with the Danish Association of the Blind. Existing talking products on the market were researched and samples were examined. Through contact with manufacturers, the production and marketing cycle of talking products was traced. Finally, detailed technical and financial analysis was conducted, and recommendations were made on how to proceed with implementation of this project.
