Abstract

This paper presents the Low Vision Reading Algorithm for people with low vision problems; Low Vision Algorithm is used to reveal the hidden information under the zones in which the user cannot see correctly. This algorithm improves the obtained result when the device is used to read some type of document or web page. Thus, if it is connected with a ocular movement detection application, it aids people to use the devices in a more comfortable way.
