I have thought this for some time, a resources wiki would be very useful. There is a lot of information and a lot of products out there, finding and keeping track of it all is often difficult.

Hello Mohamed,

Here are some thoughts about how to handle graphics when you are blind.

The Sensational Blackboard is a simple way to produce accessible hand drawings for the blind "http://sensationalbooks.com/products.html".

SAS has sonification tools for graphics
-----
Here is information on the SAS Graphics Accelerator "https://www.sas.com/accessibility".

It can take data, including .xlsx formatted data, and turn it into graphics which can be studied using sonification.  As you go to increasing x, a tone rises and lowers depending on the Y-value of the data.

Here is a seminar on the technology
"https://support.sas.com/accessibility/webinars/2020-3/index.html".

The recording for Creating Accessible Maps Using SAS Graphics Accelerator and Google Maps is now available on this page:
https://support.sas.com/accessibility/webinars/2020-4/index.html

The project contact is:
ed.summers at sas.com
--- 

There are also Braille embossers that have graphical capabilities "https://viewplus.com/".

Lastly, there is the Graphiti interactive graphics display ($15,000) "https://www.orbitresearch.com/".

Hi,

Hope my mail finds you well,

I would like to pursue an MSc in computer science in university either in Europe or Canada. I wonder what options do I have regarding reading papers that have graph and math content. 

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Regards,

Mohamed E. Fayed
