Discussion by Disabilities

People who are blind may not be able to see text as they type, and thus can enter text more quickly and efficiently through a voice input system.

People who have very low vision may not be able to see text as they type, and thus can enter text more quickly and efficiently through a voice input system.

People with severe physical disabilities may have difficulty typing or pointing with a traditional keyboard and mouse. Voice input can be used instead to type much more efficiently.
