Anatoliy Kremenchutskiy, Galymzhan Gabdreshov

The lack of an accessible and effective system for blind individuals to create handwritten signatures presents a significant barrier to their independence and full participation in various aspects of life. This research introduces the Tactile Signature System, a groundbreaking approach that empowers individuals with visual impairments to form their unique handwritten signatures. Key features of the system include: Personalized customization: Through tactile interaction and voice algorithmic guidance, individuals create signatures reflecting their preferences and natural writing style. Real-time feedback: AI-powered voice prompts and analysis ensure accuracy and consistency in signature formation. Accessibility: Installation in local service centers provides a secure and supervised environment for signature creation. The system's impact reaches beyond the individual level: Promotes inclusivity and independence: Blind individuals can engage in legal and financial transactions without relying on others. Empowers and fosters equal opportunities: Participation in education, employment, and civic engagement becomes more accessible. Aligns with international conventions: Upholds the right of persons with disabilities to participate fully in society. The Tactile Signature System represents a significant step towards an inclusive and accessible future for individuals with visual impairments.
