Goal and impact
Promote digital accessibility of government websites. There are many people who have difficulty understanding texts on websites. Think of low-literates, non-native speakers, people with disabilities, etc. On the GGD IJsselland website, you can use ReadSpeaker. This is software that can read out text, translate and explain it. Anyone can use ReadSpeaker directly.
Considerations
Digital Accessibility is a legal obligation. This tool contributes substantially to that.
Human intervention
Text is converted to speech. There is no human intervention.
Risk management
There is no risk.
Legal basis
Temporary digital accessibility decree
European Accessibility Act
WCAG2.0

Technical design
ReadSpeaker webReader is a SaaS (Software as a Service). It uses Deep Neural Network (DNN) technology. The software analyses the data presented, such as text on a website. With the help of a mathematical model, it converts this into natural, intelligible speech.
