Abstract
We examined VDT of low vision people, made experimental machine and evaluate it. And we made a trial product for practical use. From the examination, we found that it problems to move frequently their eyes and to operate writing-stands. We made an experimental machine and evaluate it with 2 low vision subjects. They could operate the machine more effectively than former ones. So we improved the weak point of the experimental machine and made a trial product for practical use. People can operate this system with foot switch or joy-stick.
