Yes I did use dictation and LOL that is pretty funny. It is also scary because it means that A I knows I have a friend named Kane spelled with a capital K. I never dictate to my computer but I get tired of using the on screen keyboard for typing. I'm not very fast so I prefer to dictate.

As a cane user with low vision who loves wearing colorful outfits, I was excited to purchase a Barbie that can serve as a valuable introduction to learning about the spectrum of blindness/visual impairment in a fun way. Here is a list of ways that Blind Barbie showcases how to design for visual impairment and examples of assistive technology that she might use.
