E-commerce Website for the Visually Impaired

Abstract: In recent years, the popularity of e-commerce has soared. However, many e-commerce sites are not easily accessible for visually impaired individuals due to their complex layouts and numerous elements, which makes navigation difficult using screen readers. Our project aims to develop an inclusive e-commerce website specifically designed for visually impaired individuals. To address the accessibility issues they face online, we have integrated a voice assistant that enables users to navigate the website using voice commands. Additionally, our website features a user-friendly interface that is simple, interactive, and easy to navigate. We prioritize user feedback in our iterative design process to ensure effectiveness and usability. Our ultimate goal is to empower visually impaired individuals to shop independently and confidently in the digital world.
