Screen reader - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Screen readers are used by people with little or no functional vision: people with some vision often use screen magnifiers. Screen readers were therefore forced to employ new low-level techniques, gathering messages from the operating system and using these to build up an "off-screen model", a representation of the display in which the required text content is stored. Other screen readers, such as Virgo from Baum, are sold as part of a package with a Braille display, allowing users of the Braille display to access their computer. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Screen_reader   (1049 words)

Display resolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia One use of the term "Display resolution" applies to fixed-pixel-array displays such as flat-panel plasmas (PDPs), LCDs, front and rear projectors using LCD, DLP or similar technologies and is simply the physical number of columns and rows of pixels creating the display (eg, 852x480; 1368x768 etc). One factor is the display screen's rectangular shape, which is expressed as the ratio of the physical picture width to the picture height. Also in analog connected picture displays such as CRT TV sets, the horizontal scanlines are not divided into pixels, and therefore the horizontal resolution is related to the bandwidth of the luminance and chroma signals. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Display_resolution   (1420 words)
