Hi all, Sharing this so they can get participants from across as many computer platforms as possible. Take it if you can, or at least share it widely. Thanks, Karen Take a Survey: Text-to-Speech Delivery of Description of Web-based Video WGBH's Carl and Ruth Shapiro Family National Center for Accessible Media (NCAM) is conducting a joint study with IBM-Japan on the feasibility of using text-to-speech software to deliver descriptive narration of Web-based video. No worries- we're not considering uses synthesized voices to describe movies and TV, just video that appears on the Web (and that is proliferating at a rapid pace). A survey is posted now at the URL below. We invite people who are blind or have low vision and who are over 18 years of age to take the survey, which will be posted until Friday, March 4. It is fully accessible with screen readers, and should take between 45-60 minutes (though folks report finishing it in less time). http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/461112/3i40b
