Sometimes, a sighted person just must describe it, which is problematic sense each description differs, and the blind person can’t always understand the description. Also, tactile images can be created and labelled in braille, but this is labor intensive and requires a sighted individual with the knowledge, time, and skill to do it. This new device is a haptic feedback joystick that plugs into a computer that also has a microscope connected to it. It has been tested on red and white blood cells. The blind person navigates the cell with the joystick, and receives a pushback when encountering a cell wall, and different vibrations when hovering over different textured objects. So far, tests have indicated that a blind person can identify the difference between a white and red blood cell more accurately using this device than by means of other methods. Handheld Scanner Converts Text to 36Cell Refreshable Braille: Cost, About $100: Six women, all undergraduate engineering students at MIT, won last year’s MakeMIT Hackathon by creating a device that can easily change the world for people who are blind. They call themselves Team-Tactile, and they did something that should have been done a long time ago. They created a device that is the size of a candy bar. It has a camera on the back, it runs OCR software, and it has 36cells of refreshable braille on the front. You just move the device, for now called Tactile, over printed text, and it is immediately displayed in braille on the front. Think about what an improvement this is over current methods of taking pictures, waiting for OCR software to convert to text, and then having to have a very expensive braille device connected to whatever you used to take the picture and convert to text. The team only had 15 hours to create this device during the hackathon competition, and it only costs around one hundred dollars. The problem in the braille display market is that no one has been motivated to create anything new and affordable. We are still using technology that is decades old, and the cost for these devices are in the thousands of dollars. It is about time that new options come to those who desperately need it. Only 10% of blind people can read braille, 70% of blind people are unemployed, and 80% of blind people who are employed can read braille. You do the math. Having easy access to braille material directly correlates to a more educated and productive blind community. Orca 3.24 Screen Reader and Magnifier Has Entered Development: Public Preview is Available for Download: Orca, the popular screen reader, and magnifier for Linux, has entered development in anticipation of the public launch of version 3.24 on March 23rd. Version 3.23.4 is available now for testing, if you would like to get a head start on the new release. You can download it here. Some of the improvements include: • Better support for webpages • Improved ARIA support • Improved support for the LibreOffice office suite • Improvements in handling the SeaMonkey mail client The New ChromeVox Screen Reader for Blind Users of Chrome Books is Now Ready: All Chromebooks released in 2017 will have the ability to run Android apps, some of the new Chromebooks have greatly improved specs, and now Google is also making improvements to its ChromeVox screen reader.

What is your deepest darkest secret? Listen in as we open the doors to the VIP room with one of your favourite host Joel Ramos, as he opens up to his fellow hosts Jessica Rickards and newcomer Gabriel Vega, CEO of Commtech. VizLens helps the blind operate appliances with digital screens and unlabeled buttons Think about the number of electronic appliances you encounter on a daily basis – using a microwave, adjusting the thermostat in your home, or buying a snack from the office vending machine. Now, imagine trying to operate any of these if you were blind. Impossible? Anhong Guo, Ph.D. student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII), is turning this into a reality with the development of an interactive screen reader called VizLens. Windows 10 build 15025 brings braille support for Narrator Microsoft is excited to announce braille support for Narrator. This experience is currently in beta. So try it out and give feedback! In order to use braille with Narrator, you will need to do the following: • Ensure Narrator is running. Then go to Settings > Ease of Access (WIN + U) and under the Narrator settings, activate the “Download Braille” button. You will be prompted to install braille support. • Under Settings > Ease of Access, activate the “Enable braille” button and add a braille display. Note that USB and serial connections for the display are supported. • Under Settings > Ease of Access, choose the language and braille table you want to use. Note detailed documentation about braille display key mappings will be made available in the Narrator User Guide closer to when the Windows 10 Creators Update is released. NOTE: There are coexistence issues with braille support and third party screen readers. Until the documentation is available, we recommend that braille be enabled for Narrator only on PCs that do not also have a third-party screen reader configured to use a braille display. New mono audio option in Ease of Access settings Visually impaired users use a screen reader application to read the PC screen content and information to them, and frequently use headphones or earbuds to hear the computer when in meetings or having conversations with others. When doing so, they generally use only one earbud to hear the PC in one ear so the other ear is free to hear conversations and sounds around them. That can cause them to not hear sounds that may be directed to the other earbud. In order to change the sound to be mono mode and so all audio is directed to both ears, they used to need a physical earphone adapter. You can now switch your audio to mono straight from the new Audio section under Settings > Ease of Access > Other options. A new startup, Innovision, has recognized to problem that exists for those who are blind Although voice feedback is convenient, and it opens many opportunities, it doesn’t promote literacy. Blind people need access to braille material, and current pricing on braille displays keeps most people from being able to access the printed word, especially in developing countries. Innovision has created the BrailleMe, which is a simple braille display that plugs directly into your phone or computer. It also has Bluetooth capabilities.

The New Year traditionally is about setting new goals and resolutions for improving ourselves throughout the coming year. But, at Cool Blind Tech we're all about highlighting new technology and products that improve the lives of those with disabilities no matter the time of year. This week, join Nelson Rego and Joel Ramos as they showcase some of the hottest accessible technology presented at the 2017 Consumer Electronic Show that took place in Las Vegas Nevada. Game changers this year included an innovative refreshable Braille tablet from Blitab Technologies called the BLITAB Tablet. The way this tablet presents Braille is incredible and you got to hear it to believe. Many products discussed on this week's show also received prestigious awards in the category of accessible technology and products. Some of these include the PCEye Mini which is an eye tracking device that allows individuals with mobility impairments to use a computer. The ReSound Enzo was also a recipient of an award for its Smart Hearing Aid for individuals with severe hearing loss. Nominees also included the Dring Smart Cane which packs a ton of technology into a mobility cane for individuals with physical disabilities who are prone to falling.

"Newman Library celebrates its 10 millionth visitor during a ceremony on February, 8, 2007. Sandra Younger, a part-time undergraduate student of Baruch College, became the library's 10 millionth visitor On Saturday morning, February 3, 2007. In commemoration of this milestone event she received a $1,000 gift certificate to the Baruch College Bookstore. Arthur Downing, Chief Information Officer/Assistant Vice President for Information Technology, and Chief Librarian, Baruch College, opened the celebration by pointing out that last year when “the university surveyed the undergraduate student population and asked Baruch students how they felt about the library…not a single student indicated any level of dissatisfaction.” Bernard Banks, president of the Undergraduate Student Government, praised the Newman Library as “a place we should be proud of” and singled out the library's 24 hour schedule during midterms and finals as providing “students with a safe heaven” when they have to study late hours. Provost David Dannenbring, the College's chief academic officer, noted the library's strong service commitment to student and faculty needs. The celebration also recognized four finalists in the Newman Library Trivia Quiz contest, which tested students' knowledge of the library. Baruch students Harrison Adler, Siddharth Bajaj, Christian Drankwalter, and Joel Ramos each received a certificate for an iPhone, which will be available from Apple® after June 1. Professor Downing explained that the iPhones were selected as prizes to reflect the library's commitment to leadership in the use of information technology."
