Hi,

I am passing this on for Merrie Morris, a MSR researcher. Please
contact her at merrie at microsoft.com.

Microsoft Research is seeking blind iPhone users to help evaluate a
novel computer vision tool. Participants will spend one hour using the
new technology

at our office in Redmond, WA,
and will receive a $50 Amazon gift card as a gratuity for their time.
In the event that a sighted companion is accompanying you (to assist
with transportation,
for instance), we can offer them a $25 gift card as compensation, as
well. To participate, you must be blind (such that you always use a
screenreader to
interact with computing devices), and be a regular user of the iPhone
and its VoiceOver screen reader. The two study sessions will be on
Thursday, March
10th starting at either 4 p.m. or 5 p.m.
