Envision Glasses: Exploring Additional Features & Answering Questions
Wednesday, May 4, 2022, from 1PM to 2PM Eastern

Did you miss previous presentations on the new Envision glasses but would
like an opportunity to learn about them? Perhaps you previously attended,
but you want to explore their capabilities again or learn about the latest
features. Join Ian Ramos and Zhi Huang from Access Ingenuity as we look at
the exciting new Envision glasses. Envision glasses use the cutting-edge
Google Glasses platform as a way for visually impaired users to gain access
to their environment. They give you the ability to scan text, be it
handwritten notes, books, or your favorite recipe. Using the built-in
camera, you can call someone and have them see from your point of view to
help you pick out the perfect outfit or help you navigate a challenging
obstacle. Learn more about the additional features these glasses offer and
how they differ from other wearable technologies currently on the market.
Attendees from previous presentations on the glasses can still benefit from
this since we will introduce new features. Last time the focus was Read and
Call features, and this one will primarily focus on Identify and Find
features and the various settings.
Learning Outcomes
How Scene Description can offer more independence.
How the glasses use cutting-edge technology to help you do more.
Explore new features since our last Envision glasses presentation.
Answer your additional questions.

Save, Open & Browse Files with JAWS Using Speech or Braille
(ACVREP CE Approved)
Wednesday, May 11, 2022, from 1PM to 2PM Eastern

In many cases, the ability to save, open, or browse for files within
various Windows programs uses a very similar interface. The key is to
understand this interface while working with JAWS using either a QWERTY
keyboard or Focus braille display to help you become more efficient with
the above tasks. Join Rachel Reeves, Marisa Church, and Zhi Huang from
Access Ingenuity with Joe McDaniel from Vispero to explore the Save As,
Open With and Browse dialog boxes to understand how it works with JAWS and
Windows. It is important to note that this presentation will benefit those
who want to know how to manage files while using JAWS with either a QWERTY
keyboard or a Focus braille display. Note that everybody is welcome and can
benefit from this presentation. If you are a teacher of the visually
impaired (TVI), this presentation is approved for ACVREP continuing
education credit.
Learning Outcomes
Understand the difference between Save and Save As.
Explain the three main questions in the Save As, Open With, and Browse
dialog boxes and the default answers.

Focus braille display.
