Doors are opened for differently-abled people to operate a computer with 'DOORS' Operating System

A new innovation has been brought to the world of computerization. A student group from Bangalore's Government Sri Krishnarajendra Silver Jubilee Technological Institute have developed an operating system (OS) that will assist the differently-abled people to use their laptops and PCs. Called the DOORS(Disk Operated Office Recovery System), this particular OS makes use of gesture controlling system for physically challenged users, including visually impaired.
The students Neelakantan S, Vivekananda M, Veda Prakash and Mohammad Irshaad,of Bangalore started the project three years back, since then they have been working on it. An Intensity Sensor, with which the OS is able to detect the slightest movements of the hands or limbs of a person.
Including a speech recognition tool specially meant for the visually impaired users, the OS also comes with an in-built anti-virus program called Cool Cops that automatically quarantine infected files. This live OS does not require any installation and more often takes about a minute to load. This makes the OS more user -friendly. The OS also supports Windows and Linux files.
