DAISY Digital Talking Book
Digital Accessible Information System, or DAISY, is a format based on the
W3C defined
SGML applications
XHTML 1.0 and
SMIL 1.0. Using this framework, a talking book format is presented that enables navigation within a sequential and hierarchical structure consisting of (marked-up) text synchronized with audio. DAISY assists people who, for different reasons, have problems using regular printed media. DAISY books have the benefits of regular
audio books, but they are superior when it comes to navigating the content and displaying synchronized text. For example, DAISY books can enable users who are
blind to navigate an
encyclopedia. An encyclopedia as a regular audio book would be useless because it lacks search and navigation features and requires a linear listen.
