FUTURE SCOPE
1. Enhanced Accessibility through Emerging Technologies
Ø AI-Powered Enhancements:
• AI-generated audio descriptions for complex images, charts, and infographics in real-time.
• Advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to create more human-like and multilingual text-to-speech (TTS) voices.
• Real-time captioning powered by AI for live news, ensuring greater accuracy and reduced latency.
Ø Wearable Devices:
• Integration with smart glasses (e.g., AR glasses) to display captions or sign language overlays for videos.
• Audio-to-haptic converters in wearables to notify users of breaking news via vibrations or patterns.

Ø Haptic Technology:
• Advanced haptic devices to provide tactile feedback for navigation and alerts.
• Braille screens that dynamically display news content for visually impaired users.
2. Greater Personalization
Ø Behavioural AI:
• AI that learns individual accessibility needs and automatically configures the interface (e.g., preferred text size, themes, or
TTS speed).
• Hyper-personalized content curation, considering user preferences, disabilities, and cultural context.
Ø Inclusive Multilingual Features:
• AI-driven translation to make captions, TTS, and sign language interpreters available in multiple languages, breaking
language barriers globally.
