Inspiration

We all type. Typing is a fundamental part of who we are. But not everyone are able to type like we do, especially those who are visually impaired. So we wanted to figure out a way in which visually impaired individuals can learn to type.

What it does

The program is supposed to generate sounds, for different keys that are pressed. This would help the person associate the sound to the letter they typed and hopefully remeber the placement of the key. The program currently is not able to implement some of these functions.

How we built it

We used Java to program the components of the app.

Challenges we ran into

We had limited time in which to come up with an idea, and figure out how to make it into a possibility. So we had trouble making our program into a full fledged app.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of coming up with a useful idea and figure out the base plan on how we will implement our idea into an actual project.

What we learned

We learned about inserting audio files into programs, and a little bit about JFrame and how it helps build GUI

What's next for The Talking Keys

We hope to expand upon our program and add in more functionality and eventually make it into a fully fludged app that anyone can use.
