MANILA, Philippines — Audio technology for visually impaired voters is among several innovations of the new automated counting machines (ACMs) being pushed by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) for the 2025 midterm elections, according to chairman George Garcia. 'Gusto namin, puwedeng mabasa ng ating mga kababayang, halimbawa po, hindi nakakakita. So dapat po may ganung klaseng feature upang ma-serve naman po natin sila. At the same time, mayroon pong audio feature siya. Ibig sabihin… at the same time, puwedeng marinig na lang ng ating mga botante na may kapansanan kung ano at sino yung binoto nila,' he explained.
