Project Summary

A free and open source screen reader (written in python) for the MS Windows operating system.

NonVisual Desktop Access was started because of the need for a free open-source non-visual access solution for windows.

Written entirely in python, NVDA is a functional screen reader that allows you to use Windows without vision by using MSAA, the windows API, and a speech synthesizer to convey what is happening.
