[NFBCS] Seeking Interviews for PhD Multiline Braille Display Project

[Ronald Heisser]

Dear NFBCS membership,

My name is Ronald Heisser and I am a mechanical engineering PhD student at Cornell University developing novel actuation technology for low-cost tactile displays. I am doing an NSF-funded commercialization program to learn from braille display users to determine what value a multiline display could bring to the blind community.

I am emailing the computer science listserv because I have learned that people who write code might experience frustrations or limitations with single line displays. I am very curious to learn more about experiences of blind programmers, professional and amateur.

If you have 15-20 minutes to speak this week or next, I'd be glad to interview you. All stages of life are welcome. I can do zoom or text. My number is provided in my email signature if you'd like to call or text me with your interest.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
