> Artificial intelligence is pushing forward innovation in nearly every area - including accessibility for those who are blind or have low vision.
> Apps can describe out loud what's within their camera's range - no human eyes necessary. A-I is part of the long story of how technology can make the world easier to navigate for the blind.
> So if you're blind or have low vision, we want to know: how do you use technology to make the world more accessible?
> Leave us a voicemail: 8-5-5, 2-3-6, 1-2-1-2.
> How can technology help - or possibly hinder - your experiences? Our number is 8-5-5, 2-3-6, 1-2-1-2. Or leave a message with our app, 1A Vox Pop. And we'll get to your thoughts soon.
