Hello,

My name is Cindy and I am a research assistant at the University of
Washington. We have developed an iPhone application called StopInfo that
provides specific information about the location of and landmarks at bus
stops in King County. We are seeking volunteers to participate in a study to
test this application. Participants must be blind or low vision adults (18
years old and over) and use iPhones. Participants must use public transit in
the Seattle metro area on a regular basis, and be willing to use our
application in their daily life for this 5 week study. Because we are
testing an application that assists with navigation, we unfortunately cannot
accept participants who use guide dogs.

During the study, participants will use StopInfo in their daily lives.
Participants will attend an introductory interview and an exit interview at
the University of Washington both of which will last no longer than one
hour.  Participants will also fill out a web form about their experiences
using the application and with public transportation at least 10 times
during the 5 week study period. We estimate that this form takes about 10
minutes to complete and can be done any time during the study period.
Participants will be compensated $25 for the introductory interview, $25 if
they fill out the web form at least 10 times during the 5 week study period,
and $25 for participating in the exit interview. Participants will have the
opportunity to earn extra compensation for submitting more than 10 web
forms. Participants can submit up to 20 web forms and will earn an extra
$2.50 for each form they submit after their 10th form resulting in a
potential additional $25 in compensation.

Participation in this study is completely voluntary, and you are free to
withdraw at any time. All of your interviews and responses on the web form
will be kept confidential.

Please email bennec3 at cs.washington.edu if you are interested in
volunteering.

Thank you.
