Hi all, I wanted to dive in on this conversation.
Since I got the mac back 6 years ago, I have exclusively used voice over. With tries and certain frustrations with android, but the latter device has its own potential. Huge one in fact. Back to the mac. Since the inception of voice over device non specific, voice over has allowed everyone to access applications on the creative side used by the same machines. And one big adbvantage for quite a few of us, I tend to think, is that it is unix based. This allows for the mac voice over system, layer on top of layer on top of unix, reads very well on different command line tools, developer apps, x-code etc. It can’t be easier to connect to linux in all its flavours, and machine code can be equally interpreted. The graphics issue is algorithmic. There is no visual perception algorithms in any of voice over. Which I tend to hope Apple is working on, though I’m not 100% sure at this moment. I also found a windows executable wrapper wine while searching for multi processing and memory reading. This effectively allows us to connect into the function calls interpreted by the mac. Which makes both platforms very synbiotic. They both have a history that I will not mention or detail now. Here are what is still missing in voice over: -The capability to listen to the personal account server protecting your media, images, projects, work, pictures, etc. Mirrorring or duplications are made at Apple and we have no idea what it does and where it goes, and everything is collected en masse. It’s truly frightening but its still something a few companies like Apple or Google advocate. One less before in the current under tinges coming out of that head office. In the name of freedom. -Connectivity apps between server and iphone for voice over specific use. Developers I’m sure you’re on it. Me too. For this, I thank Apple. -A true 3D audio dimension that takes out of gfx algorithms and can be zero summed with full GFX (GFX being more of the layers that compose the phone’s graphics engine. -A series of blind community connectivity worldwide that allows a large number of individuals to play World of Warcraft, or audio training games for those early in the notion of sound. using voice over’s engine. - A semantics algorithm that picks up through the microphone an individual’s words, clicks, phonemes in fast or slow, sky’s the limit, then acts upon various tasks recorded in advance. Scripting can be applied to this. As modules beyond, our macs, those home servers we have are capable of providing so much more information so much faster. So our phones can stay nominal in processing. -The ability to use an infrared system to point our hands around with small gestures enacting INTUITIVE. I didn’t quote, I large blocked this. INTUITIVE gestures. -The list above is being worked on, and I am actively seeking blind programmers who wish to try a beta of an accessible world of warcraft.
