g-narrator's Introduction

G-Narrator

This project is proposed as an easy-to-use and functional alternative to the conventional narrator, with the aim of being a useful tool especially for low vision users.

Initial motivation

In many videogames, the use of the mouse for controlling the camera is often used. On the other hand, the magnifier app which makes the elements on the screen appear larger, also makes use of the movement of the mouse to move around the screen. These two behaviors collide between each other if they wanna be performed simultaneously. In other words, while playing a videogame one is not able to use the magnifier app and move the mouse around the screen. Additionally, tools like Windows Narrator do not work in these scenarios. This project was initially posed as a solution to this problem, however in reality this tool can be used in any scenario.

Application demo

In the following video it is shown how the application works:

Keyboard input stops working

When using the app while gaming, it can ocurr that the OS language settings change during execution thereby stopping the keyboard input.

Installation error

There is an error when installaing the app in windows 10. The error seems to be realted with some loading DLL issue
