Enhancing Online Shopping for the Visually Impaired
SenseWeb is a Chrome extension designed to assist visually impaired users while shopping on Amazon. This free tool integrates seamlessly with Amazon's interface, appearing as an additional button next to product titles. By clicking this button, users can access audio descriptions that summarize the product's sentiment, leveraging advanced generative AI technology to provide insightful information. The extension supports multiple Amazon regions, including com, co.uk, and com.tr, broadening its accessibility.
For those seeking more detailed insights, a second click on the button delivers a more thorough audio summary. Users also have the flexibility to pause or stop the narration at any time by clicking the button again. This functionality allows for a user-friendly experience, making online shopping more inclusive for individuals with visual impairments.
