[Athen] Any Listings of Free Assistive Technologies?

[E.A. Draffan]

I have a feeling there were some lists on the subject on the wiki but just
in case more are needed. 

Free stuff on EmpTech http://www.emptech.info/categories_list.php?M=1
Open source on OATS software http://www.oatsoft.org/ 
Adaptech http://www.adaptech.org/ 
and here in UK we have AccessApps.

Best wishes E.A.

I did a pesentation at CSUN on exactly that.

Unfortunately for your purposes, it was in 1993. :-)

Hi everyone,

I'll soon be giving a presentation  regarding Assistive Technologies for
the computer that are freely available.  So far, I intend to touch on
the technologies listed below; However, I would welcome any additions,
or pointers to lists of such technologies already compiled on the net.
So far, I intend to cover:
1.  System Access to Go
2.  NVDA or nonvisual Desktop Access
3.  ReadPlease text reading software.
4.  The AMIS Daisy Reader
5.  Orca, a screen reader for the Gnome Desktop Environment.
6.  VoiceOver screen reader for the Mac

What am I missing?

Thanks,
