Dyslexia is treated by many specialists as a cognitive impairment involving visual attention deficit. It may cause an image of letter rotation or overlapping. Both children and adults suffer from this disease, differing in individual needs and seriousness. With a growing amount of information being distributed digitally, there is a need to accommodate online text to dyslexic users. However, with different types of operating systems, web browsers and substantial dyslexia individualism, it is not easy to fully automatize such needs. We are developing an extension for Chrome browser which is based on our previous cognitive research and empirical data. Such an extension will allow users with dyslexia to accommodate web content with special fragmentation sign which demonstrably suppresses reading problems caused (not only) by dyslexia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
