"This is a recorded talk by Karthik Kannan, the co-founder of Envision.
Envision is a smartphone app that enables visually impaired people to access
visual information around them like text, objects and faces independently.
With Envision, visually impaired users are now shopping in supermarkets,
using public transport, reading menu cards in restaurants, recognising their
friends, finding their belongings and so much more, all on their own. 

Karthik talks about how Envision's journey began in a school for the blind
in India and how it came to life through a research project in the
Netherlands. The talk also includes live demonstration and explanation of
all the current features and functions of the app. He also talks extensively
about what new features are in the pipeline, their expansion plan for
Android and their next big move. We hope you enjoy the talk and we look
forward to hearing from many of you soon. You can contact us for queries and
feedback on:

If you are a first-time user of the Talking Communities Online Conferencing
software, there is a small, safe software program that you need to download
and then run. A link to the software is available on every entry screen to
the Accessible World online rooms.

 

All online interactive programs are free of charge, and open to anyone
worldwide having an Internet connection, a computer, speakers, and a sound
card. Those with microphones can interact audibly with the presenters and
others in the virtual audience or text chat with the attendees. To speak to
us, hold down the control key until you hear a chirp and then talk; then let
up to release the microphone and listen.

 

Accessible World uses News Wires, like this one, to inform people of the
topic and times for the many Discussion Groups on Accessible World. The
lists are announced only to keep the traffic to a minimum.

 

You can join the Accessible World one-way Announce List by sending an email
to: aw-announcements+subscribe@xxxxxxxxx 

 

Accessible World also provides a Tek Talk Discussion List. This list is
intended to give you an opportunity to ask computer-related questions,
suggest topics to be used in the weekly Monday Training Programs, or just to
interact with others interested in using assistive devices to access
computers. You may sign up for this list by writing a blank letter to:
tek-talk-discussion+subscribe@xxxxxxxxx. To unsubscribe, write to:
