Let them hear the world

2022-09-27   

If you lose your sight, what will your world be like? For healthy people, eyes help us understand the world, and reading helps us understand the world. However, visually impaired people need to touch Braille bit by bit with their fingers, use specially made large print books or listen to audio books to feel the colorful world. Providing more accessible books for the visually impaired is like lighting up a lamp to illuminate the dark world. Voice books bring new experiences. "Since I entered college at the age of 21, in the past ten years, more than one hundred people may have solemnly proposed to me that I should write a book to describe my experience and use it to encourage and help more people..." The clear and firm voice spoke in a clear and firm voice. This is the video impaired anchor Liu Jie's performance of the autobiography "I Hear the Colorful World" by the contemporary blind performer Wu Jing. This book tells the story of Wu Jing's development from an ordinary blind child in Jiangsu rural areas to an internationally renowned music player and a Sino foreign exchange activist. Wu Jing's story has inspired many people, and Liu Jie has also been touched and inspired countless times in the process of recording and broadcasting. Liu Jie's online name is "acting Jie Baoer", and she is a post-90s Tianjin girl. With congenital visual impairment, she only has weak vision. Because she likes dubbing and telling stories, she participated in the training of disabled anchorman held by the Himalayan APP and Guangdong Disabled Persons' Federation in 2021.

In order to enable them to enjoy the same rights and interests as those with normal vision, audiobooks are laying a "digital blind road" for them. In recent years, with the help of digital technology, the number of audiobooks has increased significantly, which has become an important way for Braille publishing and blind people to acquire knowledge. From such literary masterpieces as Alive and White Deer Plain, to such historical and cultural works as Emperor Kangxi, the Sky of History, and popular works like Chasing Murderers in the White Night and Mysterious Lord, popular among young people, the wide variety of audio books on the network platform makes it more convenient for the visually impaired. Accessibility adaptation opens a new "vision" "Through the accessibility adaptation function, I can listen to songs and books on the Cool Dog Music APP, and I can also edit and type with the keyboard." Xiao He, a visually impaired person, said, "This function enables me to communicate with netizens like normal people, which makes me feel respected." With the continuous development of science and technology, the barrier free adaptation function has become more and more advanced, bringing more rich entertainment services for the visually impaired.
