Visually impaired employees can turn speech into text for e-mail, reports, spreadsheets, presentations, and even Facebook updates with this software from Nuance (NUAN). It's also useful in a pinch for hearing-impaired people who are trying to communicate with those speaking to them, says Michael Janger, who is deaf and runs a consulting firm that helps companies understand the market for people with disabilities.
