[TAGS] Seeking BLV interviewees on inclusive tactile graphic creation

[Lucia Hasty]

Hi, Gina.It is great to hear from you again. It will be interesting to read
your survey results and follow your research.

On a parallel note, Touch Graphics has developed the T3 Creator app to use
with the T3 Touchpad. It allows a blind or visually impaired user to create
a graphic, add labels to the graphic using voice or keyboard or braille
notetaker, or emboss the graphic using PageBlaster or Index's Basic D or
Everest embossers. The beta version will be released in early June. If you
are interested in being a beta tester, or just getting more information,
send an email to info at touchgraphics.com.
