[NFBCS] Request to test diagrams

[Nicole Torcolini]

What about sending this to the Members list to reach a wider audience?

All,

I tried John Gardner's system and think this project is well worth our help.
Please help out by participating.  It combines tactile graphics with the
ability to use a touch input device to provide information about what is
being felt on the diagram.  Also, I tried it on a Windows computer with a
touch screen which eliminates the need to have a separate touchpad device
and it worked pretty well.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Volker Sorge and I request assistance of a few of you during convention to
test accessible electric circuit and organic molecular diagrams. These were
automatically converted from molecular codes or print images to audio and
audio-tactile forms. This work was done as a NIH Phase I SBIR grant, and we
need feedback as part of our Phase II application. If we get the Phase II
grant, we intend to develop an application that will automatically convert a
wide variety of diagrams including flow charts, bar and pie charts, and x-y
line graphs.

I hope to have sessions during lunch break with 2 to 4 testers in each. You
will use an IVEO touchpad or touch-screen computer to feel and hear a number
of diagrams and then fill out a short questionnaire. This should take about
an hour, and I will provide lunch as thanks.

Please reply directly to me
(john.gardner at viewplus.com<mailto:john.gardner at viewplus.com>) for more
information or to arrange time and place.
