anita.care/s - Prototype dynamic font and app (in development)
The readability of a text depends very much on the font chosen. This is especially true for dyslexic people. For my diploma thesis at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, I developed the dynamic font Anita, which should make reading much easier for dyslexics. The organic form language makes the letters easier to distinguish from each other – especially the typical problem cases such as b and d, p and q, and with an online tool the text rendering can be individually adapted to one's own reading difficulty via nine parameters and dynamically changed. The starting point for the font was the open source font Open Dyslexic by Abbie Gonzales.
In the future, the font should be accessible to as many people as possible, including reading beginners and older people. The anita.care/s project is dynamic and will continue to develop with scientific reading research.
