<span class="application"><strong>Emacspeak</strong></span> is a speech interface that allows visually impaired users to interact independently and efficiently with the computer. <span class="application"><strong>Emacspeak</strong></span> has dramatically changed how hundreds of blind and visually impaired users around the world interact with the personal computer and the Internet. A rich suite of task-oriented speech-enabled tools provides efficient speech-enabled access to the evolving semantic world wide web. When combined with Linux running on low-cost PC hardware, <span class="application"><strong>Emacspeak</strong></span> provides a reliable, stable speech-friendly solution that opens up the Internet to visually impaired users around the world.
</div><div class="para">
Before using <span class="application"><strong>Emacspeak</strong></span>, you should familiarize yourself with some documentation.

- </div><div class="para">
- The <em class="citetitle">Emacspeak HOWTO</em> written by Jim Van Zandt is also a very good resource, although the document is limited to the Slackware distribution.

- At various points, the following sections refer to the <span class="keycap"><strong>Meta</strong></span> key. This key is fundamental to <span class="application"><strong>Emacs</strong></span> (and therefore <span class="application"><strong>Emacspeak</strong></span>) commands, but is very seldom found on modern keyboards. Most keyboard layouts map the <span class="keycap"><strong>Alt</strong></span> key to take the place of <span class="keycap"><strong>Meta</strong></span>.

There are approximately 500 million people worldwide with some kind of visual, hearing, or mobility impairment. Currently there are over 54 million people with disabilities in the United States alone and that number is significantly increasing as the baby boomer generation continues to age. People with disabilities often find it extremely difficult to effectively use existing and emerging technologies which are often designed without regard to their needs. Websites with inaccessible content can also be problematic for screen readers and other specialized devices used by the disabled community.
</div><div class="para">
Accessible features have been voluntarily integrated into operating systems, web interfaces and other technologies because of marketing potential or because it has been "the right thing to do." Equal access to educational, professional and recreational technologies is rapidly becoming a legal requirement. Federal agencies in numerous countries are formulating accessibility standards. Federal requirements in the United States went into effect in June 2001.

- The biggest advantage of the hardware speech solutions is that speech is available before the operating system loads, which even makes it possible for people with a visually impairment to install the operating system. Hardware solutions include speech synthesizers, braille terminals, braille printers, sip and puff systems, and eye gaze pointing devices. These devices are usually very expensive and it is difficult to find drivers for them. Drivers are being written (mostly for speech synthesizers) for Linux but they need to be tested and integrated by the community into "upstream" software projects before becoming part of Fedora.

Linux offers an inexpensive and efficient solution for the disabled community. Open source software costs far less compared to tools that run on other operating systems and Linux tools are often freely downloadable.

While the <em class="firstterm">Graphical User Interface</em> (GUI) is convenient for sighted users, it is often inhibiting to those with visual impairments because of the difficulty speech synthesizers have interpreting graphics. Linux is a great operating system for users with visual limitations because the GUI is an option, not a requirement. Most modern tools including email, news, web browsers, calendars, calculators and much more can run on Linux without the GUI. The working environment can also be customized to meet the hardware or software needs of the user.
