- Advocating for Yourself in an Emergency Medical Situation: Advice for
People with Visual Impairments, by Deborah Kendrick
<http://afb.us11.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=8a809e1221&e=0122cec033>
Even while rooted in a hospital bed, unable to move without assistance,
we can still advocate for ourselves, control our own environments to a
point, and thus maintain our independence. This article uses my experience
to demonstrate how to advocate for yourself? while in a hospital setting
- A Review of Manamon, an Audio-Based Role-Playing Game by VGStorm, by
Aaron Preece
<http://afb.us11.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=3a88f57365&e=0122cec033>
Manamon is an excellent game for those who enjoy turn-based role-playing
games. The game plays smoothly and the sound design is top-notch. Manamon
customization is limited, which can make some of the minor balance issues
problematic, but the developer continues to make improvements.
- A Review of the Audio Tutorial for the Google Suite of Products by
Mystic Access, by Bill Holton
<http://afb.us11.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=c70d7f68f9&e=0122cec033>
The step-by-step audio guidance works well. The tutorial does not strive
to be comprehensive. Indeed, that would take a book several hundred pages
long. What this tutorial aims to do, and in my opinion it succeeds
admirably, is to offer a beginner's guide to these apps, giving you
sufficient basic knowledge to venture forth on your own into the more
advanced features.
- There's No Place like Google Home: A Review of Google's Voice
Assistant, by J.J. Meddaugh
<http://afb.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=ab9fec3772&e=0122cec033>
While my smartphone can do many of the same tasks that Google Home does,
it's nice to have a machine that I can yell at wherever I am in my house,
regardless of where my phone happens to be. The hands-free operation lets
me set timers, read recipes, or call an Uber with little effort, making the
device an integral part of my life.
- CAPTCHA Be Gone from Accessible Apps Removes Another Barrier to
Accessibility, by Jamie Pauls
<http://afb.us11.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=15309ec836&e=0122cec033>
CAPTCHA Be Gone is an easy-to-use service that does exactly what it
promises--it allows someone with a visual impairment to successfully enter
the information requested by a CAPTCHA with a minimal amount of
inconvenience.
- Feel the Buzz of the BuzzClip, by Janet Ingber
<http://afb.us11.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=bd3c8fefc9f905f5ccf41c577&id=cb0b8f82c3&e=0122cec033>
Wearable technology, such as the Apple Watch, is currently a big trend
in consumer electronics, and the BuzzClip is a promising new entry in this
market. This device can be a beneficial tool to increase independence for
visually impaired travelers.
