  • Patent number: 11709898
    Abstract: A screen reader application traverses each node in a document object model (DOM) for the text stylization. Properties for foreground color, background color, font type, font size and font stylization are algorithmically reduced to an identifier. Each node in the DOM with the same identifier has the same text stylization. Unique and infrequent text stylizations by a webpage author signal a point of interest. The screen reader application locates and navigates to that node in the DOM on behalf or in response to the end user. Points of interest are further identified by a number of additional factors. A first includes percentage of text of having the text stylization versus total text in the DOM. A second includes excluding candidate point of interest nodes having more than 250 characters. Others include imposing minimum font sizes and text contrast ratios to qualify as a point of interest.

  • Patent number: 11636828
    Abstract: A system and method of automatically adjusting an optimal color orientation displayed on a computing device, particularly for users experiencing light sensitivity when interacting with the computing device. The system and method automatically query whether an application includes native color inversion settings, such that operating system and/or application settings need not be continuously toggled between active and inactive states. Accordingly, the display of the computing device is automatically optimized, such that either the operating system's color inversion settings are selected (in the absence of an application's native color inversion settings), or the application's color inversion settings are selected with the operating system's settings being automatically deactivated.
