Storm Interface’s dedication to a usable and accessible experience equals Vispero’s ongoing mission to serve users who are blind or who have low vision. The partnership between Storm and Vispero brings together two leaders in assistive technology and establishes greater usability of kiosks.

Members of the National Federation of the blind applaud the collaboration between Vispero and Storm Interface toward the continued development and implementation of accessible kiosk systems. As kiosks are an ever-growing gateway to banking, shopping, accessing healthcare, and applying for and receiving public services, it is essential that the blind have access to these systems in order to live the lives we want. We appreciate that both Vispero and Storm Interface have been, and will continue to be, receptive to the feedback and recommendations of the nation’s blind.

RNIB has worked closely with Storm Interface to test and improve their accessible keyboards to ensure they are both accessible and easy to use for blind and partially sighted people. With the growing use of touch screen kiosks in places like train stations and restaurants, it is essential that blind and partially sighted people can have equal access to all services provided. The provision of well-designed text-to-speech output with the Storm tactile keyboard will be a great step towards an inclusive society which is at the heart of our vision for the future.
