Large Button Cell Phone for the Visually Impaired

CELL PHONE MINIVISION2

The MiniVision2 is a simple cell phone with large physical buttons that is fully accessible to people who are blind.

Everything on the screen and entered is read aloud by the phone. Voice commands can also be used to control it to a significant extent. Although the MiniVision2 is a simple cell phone, it contains a number of smartphone-like capabilities. The MiniVision2 contains an alarm, camera, FM radio, light detector, color identifier, money identifier, calculator, recorder, voice notes, flashlight, weather, and a “where am I?” feature in addition to making calls and sending text messages.

CELL PHONE MINIVISION2

Physical Characteristics

The MiniVision2 is a smartphone that is slightly smaller than the average. It measures 4.9 inches in height, 2.4 inches in width, and 0.5 inches in thickness.

It’s composed of durable plastic and features rounded edges for a more comfortable grip. The keypad, which has huge black buttons with large white lettering, takes up the lowest sixty percent of the phone. The buttons are evenly placed, making it simple to select the correct option. The navigation buttons, in particular, are very haptic. The surface of the OK button is covered in countless tiny bumps, giving it a unique textured feel. The OK button is surrounded by elevated navigation buttons. Each of the Call and Power buttons has three big bumps on its surface. In short, the keypad on the MiniVision2 is the most tactile we’ve ever used.

A micro-USB charging port, a 3.5 mm audio connector for headphones, and two small holes on the phone’s bottom edge power the phone when it sits in the charging station. The power and volume controls are built into the keypad rather than on the phone’s edge, as is common on smartphones.

Voice Guide

 Voice guide turns the MiniVision2 into a “talking phone,” making it fully accessible to blind people. Everything on the screen and everything pressed is spoken by the voice guide. The MiniVision2, for example, will read the user’s text messages. It will also voice the letters as they are entered when the user is typing the reply. It will say “h removed” if the user deletes a letter, such as the letter “h.” The MiniVision2 gives users all the information they need to operate all of the device’s features fully and independently.

The voice guide not only gives the visually impaired user access to all features, but it also gives him or her numerous forms of information. It can, for example, speak phone status information like the time, date, and battery power level, as well as alert the user when the phone is charging.

English is the default language. In total, the MiniVision2 supports 19 languages. Premium voices are available for free download, allowing users to choose the voice that most appeals to them. The audio guide’s speaking pace can be set to regular, fast, faster, or extremely fast.

Voice Instructions

Many of the MiniVision2’s fundamental features may be operated with your voice. Most significantly, calls are made by pressing and holding the OK button and saying “call” followed by the name of the person to be called. Similarly, the user can send a text message by holding down the OK button and saying “send message to” followed by the recipient’s name. Voice can be used to compose messages. The speech-to-text accuracy is quite good in our experience.

Other parts of the phone can also be controlled using the user’s voice. To create a voice memo or add a new contact, for example. Voice can also be used to populate almost any text field.

Voice control is generally effective, and users who like to use their voice have plenty of opportunities to do so.

Making Phone Calls

There are four ways to make a call: To begin, the user can utilize the keyboard to dial phone numbers. As the user types the numbers, the numbers are stated aloud. Second, users can make calls directly from their contacts list. Calls can also be made from Call History. Finally, voice commands can be used to make calls. As previously stated, the user presses and holds the OK button while saying something like “Call John.”

Text Messages: Sending and Receiving

With the help of the voice guidance, you may type and send text messages. It is an easy procedure to follow. Voice commands and voice dictation can also be used to compose and send text messages. Voice commands are by far the most convenient method of sending text messages. When new text messages are received, the MiniVision2 will tell the user audibly and display the quantity of new unread messages. Text messages will be read aloud when they arrive.

More Features

Even though the MiniVision2 is a basic cell phone with buttons, it is capable of much more than just making phone calls and sending text messages. An alarm, camera, photo gallery, FM radio, light detector, color identifier, banknote recognizer, calculator, recorder, notes, flashlight, weather, “where am I?” and an emergency feature are all included on the phone. All of these are usable by someone who is blind and work effectively.

We used $1, $10, and $20 bills to test the banknote recognizer feature. The MiniVision2 correctly and reliably detected the bills. Similarly, the “Where Am I?” feature always gave me the proper address. These and other qualities should be extremely beneficial to blind people.

Low Vision Compatibility

The font size can be changed to tiny, medium, large, or extremely large. The letters are bigger than any font size on a smart phone when set to very large. In reality, when the font size is adjusted to very large, some words will not fit on the screen and will scroll over the screen.

The color schemes can also be changed by the users. White on black (the default), black on white, blue on yellow, yellow on blue, yellow on black, and black on yellow are among the color schemes available.
