Abstract
With the rapid development of WWW, HTML documents become one of the main file formats on the Web. However, blind people find difficulty in accessing the HTML documents for their complex structure and visual reliability. The main methods for the blind to browse the web pages are through screen reader and text web browser with TTS engine. These methods can only read text on the screen without knowing the relationship among the texts. It's very difficult and time consuming to find out some information from a bunch of texts. In this paper, a special web browser called eGuideDog is designed for the visually impaired people. This web browser can extract the structure and the content of an HTML document and represent it in the form of audio. It helps the blind finding out information they concern more quickly. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
