METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PROVIDING DYSLEXIC READABLE IMAGES
Dyslexic friendly and readable images are provided. Each image includes one or more positioned, non-linear (i.e., curved) boundaries and a plurality of textual objects, where each object is positioned at a distance from the boundaries and follows a boundary.
1 . A method for providing a dyslexic readable image comprising:
creating a dyslexic readable image using a device, where the created image comprises,
(i) a surface or background portion comprising one or more positioned non-linear boundaries,
(ii) one or more textual objects, and
(iii) where the one or more textual objects are positioned on the portion such that each object is at a same first distance from the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries.
2 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the one or more objects further comprise three dimensional (3D) objects.
3 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the first distance is an equal distance from one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, of the one or more positioned boundaries, that are located above and below the one or more objects.
4 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the first distance is an equal distance from a positioned non-linear boundary, of the one or more positioned boundaries, that is located above or below the one or more objects.
5 . The method as in claim 1 wherein each of the one or more positioned boundaries is separated by a second distance, and the first distance is substantially ⅓ of the second distance.
6 . The method as in claim 1 wherein one of the one or more positioned boundaries is located below each of the one or more objects and is at a third distance from each of the one or more objects, and another one of the one or more positioned boundaries is located above the one or more objects and is at a fourth distance, where the third and fourth distances vary from a second distance by up to 10%.
7 . The method as in claim 6 where the third and fourth distances are the same.
8 . The method as in claim 1 wherein each of the one or more positioned boundaries comprise a non-linear line.
9 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the image comprises a 3D border that corresponds to a geometric shape of the image.
10 . The method as in claim 1 where the one or more objects may comprise one or more of grammatical letters, words, numbers, and symbols.
11 . The method as in claim 10 wherein a grammatical letter, word or symbol comprises a character in a language.
12 . The method as in claim 10 wherein the one or more objects are presented as block-letters.
13 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the device comprises material selected from at least a paper, a wood, a plastic, a vinyl and a metal.
14 . The method as in claim 1 wherein the device comprises an electronic display.
15 . The method as in claim 1 wherein each of the positioned non-linear boundaries comprises one or more undulations.
16 . A device for providing a dyslexic readable image comprising:
means for creating a dyslexic readable image, the image comprising:
(i) a surface or background portion comprising positioned one or more non-linear boundaries,
(ii) one or more textual objects, and
(iv) where the one or more textual objects are positioned on the portion such that each object is at a same first distance from the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries.
17 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the means for creating the dyslexic readable image comprises:
an electronic storage device operable to store image data; and
an electronic processor operable to generate the dyslexic readable image, comprising the surface or background portion, the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, the one or more textual objects, and where the one or more textual objects are positioned on the portion such that each object is at a same first distance from the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, from the stored image data based on executing stored instructions.
18 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the means for creating the dyslexic readable image comprises:
a receiver that receives linear formatted information, and
an electronic processor operable to execute stored instructions to convert the linear formatted information into the dyslexic readable image comprising the surface or background portion, the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, the one or more textual objects, and where the one or more textual objects are positioned on the portion such that each object is at a same first distance from the one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, from the stored image data based on executing stored instructions.
19 . The device as in claim 18 further comprising an electronic storage device operable to store the received information or the image.
20 . The device as in claim 18 wherein the electronic processor is further operable to execute stored instructions to forward or send the received information to a remote device.
21 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the one or more objects further comprise three dimensional (3D) objects.
22 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the first distance is an equal distance from one or more positioned non-linear boundaries, of the one or more positioned boundaries, that are located above and below the one or more objects.
23 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the first distance is an equal distance from a positioned non-linear boundary, of the one or more positioned boundaries, that is located above or below the one or more objects.
24 . The device as in claim 16 wherein each of the one or more positioned boundaries is separated by a second distance, and the first distance is substantially ⅓ of the second distance.
25 . The device as in claim 16 wherein one of the one or more positioned boundaries is located below each of the one or more objects and is at a third distance from each of the one or more objects, and another one of the one or more positioned boundaries is located above the one or more objects and is at a fourth distance, where the third and fourth distances vary from a second distance by up to 10%.
26 . The device as in claim 25 where the third and fourth distances are the same.
27 . The device as in claim 16 wherein each of the one or more positioned boundaries comprise a non-linear line.
28 . The device as in claim 16 wherein the image comprises a 3D border that corresponds to a geometric shape of the image.
29 . The device as in claim 16 where the one or more objects may comprise one or more of grammatical letters, words, numbers, and symbols.
30 . The device as in claim 29 wherein a grammatical letter, word or symbol comprises a character in a language.
31 . The device as in claim 29 wherein the one or more objects are presented as block-letters.
32 . The device as in claim 16 wherein each of the non-linear positioned boundaries comprises one or more undulations.
33 . The device as in claim 16 where the device comprises an electronic server, electronic white board, laptop computer, desktop computer, smartphone, electronic personal digital assistant, electronic mobile communication terminal, electronic media player, electronic navigational device, electronic book, or electronic notepad.
