[AI] Unique wheelchair design

2012-10-04 Thread Kotian, H P
Hello

This morning on AIR there was an interview with the inventor of a unique 
wheelchair which is capable of ascending / descending staircases.

I thought it would be a useful information to some of our members and recorded 
it.

You can download it from:

Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3

2012-10-04 Thread Syed Imran
Shona:
I'm smiling as I write this. Nuance Talks and Eloquence synthesiser on a 
Smartphone with a physical keypad is by far the most accessible phone for some 
blind folks. One way or the other, we all are correct because our accessibility 
needs are more or less varied within ourselves.
Even though I have provided the highest ratings to Apple devices, I still think 
Apple has to improve on many things to meet my accessibility needs completely, 
and something makes me wonder by Jove! Whether my needs have an end.
Whether it's Android or ions, You'll find me grumbling about absence of 
eloquence TTS which is more spontaneous and generally less latent synthesiser 
out there and absence of tactile feedback on touch screen devices will 
certainly render these devices somewhat incapable of serving me.

[AI] Flexible Web

2012-10-04 Thread inamuddin
Dear friends, as you are well aware that some 24 houres ago, I have posted some 
useful information regarding jaws 14 beta 2, In which I said that 
freedomscientific is about to release jaws 14 beta 2 with in the metter of day 
or two.
Now you can download and enjoy it. Here is some useful information below
Flexible Web
Frequently, you will encounter Web pages that contain a lot of excess content 
which can make it difficult to locate the actual content you want, or interupts 
the flow when reading. For instance, many sites contain Google ad frames. These 
can be troublesome for JAWS users as they disrupt the reading order of 
surrounding content.

Flexible Web enables you to take more control of Web pages by allowing you to 
quickly find the content you are looking for, as well as hide content that 
interrupts the reading experience. You can hide sections of content, such as 
Google ad frames or other types of unnecessary content, for a smoother reading 
experience. In addition, you could have JAWS begin reading at a level one 
heading, or ARIA main region, as these may contain the most interesting content.

To use Flexible Web, open a Web page you want to customize in Internet Explorer 
or Firefox. Then, move the Virtual PC Cursor to the page element you want to 
hide, or from where you want to start reading when the page first loads. 
Activate the Flexible Web wizard by pressing the layered keystroke 
INSERT+SPACEBAR, X. Alternatively, press INSERT+F2 to open the Run JAWS Manager 
dialog box, then choose Flexible Web.

Through several easy-to-follow steps, The Flexible Web wizard that opens 
provides you with two options: hide or start reading at the selected element. 
The wizard then guides you through the process of creating a temporary 
customization by giving you various choices about the selected element and how 
you want to hide it or from where exactly to start reading. Once the 
customization has been made, it is immediately applied to the page. For 
instance, if you choose to hide all frames containing advertisements, you will 
not see any advertisements when navigating the page after making this temporary 
customization.

If you are not happy with how a customization is working, you can open the 
Flexible Web wizard to undo the last customization you made. When you return to 
the page, you can choose a different element or the same one, then reactivate 
the Flexible Web wizard to retry the customization again perhaps with different 
criteria. For example, in the case of hiding those advertisement frames 
mentioned earlier, you probably want to hide all of them, not just the first 
one on the page. The wizard will provide you with choices about whether to hide 
just the first one or all of them.

You can create as many customizations for a page as you want. Once you have 
created one or more customizations, you can save them as a rule, which is 
applied every time you load the particular page or site. To indicate that a 
rule has been applied to a page, JAWS plays a sound after the page loads. Rules 
can be applied to the current Web page, entire Web site, or globally for all 
Web sites. Otherwise, customizations are only temporary and are lost as soon as 
you navigate away from the current Web page or close the browser. If you have 
made temporary customizations and you attempt to navigate to another page or 
close the browser, a dialog box opens asking if you want to save your 
customizations as a rule.

To learn more about using Flexible Web, refer to the Flexible Web help topic in 
the JAWS online help (f1). In addition, the Freedom Scientific Training 
department will be demonstrating all of the capabilities of this exciting new 
feature in a free 1-hour webinar on Wednesday, October 24, 2012 at noon. To 
register, go to the Free Webinars from Freedom Scientific page and choose the 
Register for free New in JAWS 14 - Part Two Webinar, October 24, 2012 button.

additionally, to make a text a heading from level 1 to 3, you can select 
text and press Alt Ctrl and 1 through 3 respectively. one more thing, the 
key command for quick navigation mode is insert Z and not Q.

The quickest way to format your currently selected text as heading is to
press alt + shift + left / right arrow keys. (Left arrow will decrease the
heading level where as right arrow will increase it.)
And to skip forward or backward by headings press h or shift H while in

Hi uma,
Now a days we use virtualisation softwares. These are primerily used
by software ingeneers for testing varius softwares without impacting
their origenal operating system or pc. After installing this software,
you can start it by clicking on the desktop shortcut. When you will
run it first time, it will ask to alocate some of your existing system
hardware resources like ram, hard disk space, processor etc to make a
new virtual machine. After making a virtual machine or pc, you can
install any operating system like windows xp, 7, 8, linux/ ubuntu in
that new virtual machine which is created recently. Basically it is
used when you want to try out a new operating system without impacting
your origeenal operating system. But practically it needs a decent
amount of hardware configgeration. The softwares are to a large extent
accessible with jaws. VM ware player is a free and famous
virtualisation software.
Hope I have answered allmost all your querries.

Re: [AI] what is meant by Virtual PC?

2012-10-04 Thread Ajay Minocha
Hi sir,
it is true that you can also make a dual boot system. But When it
comes to the dual boot of linux and windows, the situation becomes a
byt trublesum. That's why virtual machines are used. Additionally,
today's virtualisation softwares can provide you to make more than one
machines. They also make virtual machine's files in a common format so
it is very much possible to use one virtual machine in other pc in
which a software is install. For example I installed windows7 in my
pc. After installing vm ware player or any virtualisation software, I
installed linux/ ubuntu in the virtual machine. The software will
creat a new file this will be of same hard drive size which was
alotted by me to that virtual machine earlier. And if I want to use my
machine in some other person's pc then I just need to take that file
along with me in any of the removable media and I will just brows the
file which is contained by my media and I can use that virtual machine
in other person's pc as well. They also provide a lot of advantages
related to networking. So dual boot is not the substitute for
virtualisation. Indeed they both are different things.

 Hi uma,
 Now a days we use virtualisation softwares. These are primerily used
 by software ingeneers for testing varius softwares without impacting
 their origenal operating system or pc. After installing this software,
 you can start it by clicking on the desktop shortcut. When you will
 run it first time, it will ask to alocate some of your existing system
 hardware resources like ram, hard disk space, processor etc to make a
 new virtual machine. After making a virtual machine or pc, you can
 install any operating system like windows xp, 7, 8, linux/ ubuntu in
 that new virtual machine which is created recently. Basically it is
 used when you want to try out a new operating system without impacting
 your origeenal operating system. But practically it needs a decent
 amount of hardware configgeration. The softwares are to a large extent
 accessible with jaws. VM ware player is a free and famous
 virtualisation software.
 Hope I have answered allmost all your querries.

 Hi folks,

 My cousin told me that we can install two or more OS in a single system.
 But, I am not able to get clear picture about virtualization.
 So, experts please explain
 What is Virtual PC?
 What are advantages of it?
 Does JAWS support it or not?
 My question may be wrong. So, please excuse me if I am wrong in my
 question.

[AI] Antarchakshu Delhi 2012 in Delhi: last chance to participate

2012-10-04 Thread Prashant Ranjan Verma
Dear Accessindia members from delhi,

I will highly recommend  participating in this event. I suggest that you get
non-disabled friends, colleagues,, bosses and  teachers  to attend this
program. This can really change their outlook towards people with visual
impairment.

This program ends tomorrow evening. Formal invite given below.

 

I am writing to you on behalf of Xavier's Resource Centre for the Visually
Challenged (XRCVC), St. Xavier's College and Saksham Trust, Delhi. The XRCVC
is a support and advocacy centre involved in awareness initiatives for the
visually challenged. The Saksham Trust is an NGO based in Delhi - a pioneer
in providing IT solutions to the blind. 

Antarchakshu - The Eye Within TM, is conducted by the XRCVC, an event which
provides an opportunity to the larger community to not just experience and
explore the world of the disabled, but understand it; a world which is not
that different. Antarchakshu creates a simulated environment which gives a
chance to its participants to be in the world of the disabled. It takes
approximately an hour for the entire experience.

It is our pleasure to announce that Antarchakshu is being presented for the
first time at the national level in collaboration with the Equal Opportunity

field of visual disability working under the administrative control of the
Ministry. Antarchakshu at Delhi will be organized by the XRCVC as part of
its national level advocacy project - Project Access: An XRCVC - Sightsavers
Initiative. Sightsavers works towards eliminating avoidable blindness and
promote equal opportunities for disabled people.

Antarchakshu 2012 at JNU, New Delhi is being held as a 3 day mega event on
the 4th, 5th  6th of October 2012 from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the JNU

your staff towards the nees and capabilities of persons with disabilities.
Participation is free and takes typically one and a half hour. You will have
the opportunity to see an exhibition of best technological solutions
available and a totally disabled friendly talking ATM machine. And the major
attraction are the more than half a dozen activities and games that will
help you understand persons with disabilities in a better way.

[AI] For visually impaired SBI plans to roll out 4,000 'Talking ATMs'

2012-10-04 Thread Surajsingh Jogi Rabale TTC
  For visually impaired

  SBI plans to roll out 4,000 'Talking ATMs'

   

  K R Srivats, The Business Line

  Published on October 5, 2012

   
 
   

  New Delhi, October 4: Banking major State Bank of India intends to roll 
out 4,000 Automated Teller Machines to cater to the needs of visually 
challenged people in the country. This target is expected to be achieved in the 
next two years, Rakesh Puri, General Manager, SBI, told Business Line here.

   

  SBI on Thursday launched its first ever 'Talking ATM' that would allow 
visually and physically challenged people to access banking facilities at the 
machine, without having to visit the branches. This SBI Talking ATM, which was 
inaugurated by Puri, is located at the Jawaharlal Nehru University campus in 
the Capital.

   

  NCR Corporation has supplied this machine to SBI as part of its existing 
contract with the SBI. This ATM has been built under 'access for all' 
standards, said Nagesh Nayak, Professional Services Practice Manager, NCR.  SBI 
is the second bank after Union Bank of India to install an ATM that catered to 
physically and visually challenged people. Other public sector banks are also 
taking steps to set up similar machines, but are mainly in pilot and testing 
stages.

   

  Puri said the ATM installed at JNU campus will cater to all including the 
visually challenged. The ATM will have special features like audio guidance, 
text-to-speech conversion solution etc.
 
  Biztech2.com reports: Supporting RBI's objective of providing financial 
accessibility to every citizen in India irrespective of his or her disability, 
NCR Corporation, the ATM service provider, will transform over 2,500 State Bank 
of India (SBI) ATMs to Voice-Guided ATMs -- which not only allows access to 
visually impaired people but also people with physical disabilities through 
ramps for wheel chair access. SBIs first real ATM for the visually impaired was 
showcased at Antarchakshu, a sensitisation workshop, organised by Xavier's 
Research Centre for the Visually Challenged (XRCVC) at Jawaharlal Nehru 
University in Delhi.

   

  NCR's Talking ATMs are incorporated with unique software and hardware 
features which ensure that a person with a disability can operate the machine 
on his own, while maintaining the safety of the transaction. These ATM machines 
are designed as per Access for All (AFA) standards and comprises of accessible 
key-pads, voice-guidance technology, Braille stickers and multi-lingual 
capability. Apart from reading aloud screen messages, the machine also provides 
complete orientation making it easy for the customer to use the machine. An 
important security feature of this ATM is that it provides the person an option 
to blank out the screen as a safety mechanism to avoid shoulder surfing by any 
bystander trying to access customer data during the transaction.

   

  Nagesh Nayak, Professional Services Practice Manager, NCR said, We are 
proud to partner with SBI which is India's largest banking and financial 
services company to upgrade their ATMs for the disabled. As a concerned 
corporate, NCR is constantly reinventing innovation for the Indian market place 
and this specialised ATM is a clear reflection of it. Indian banks and 
financial institutions are quickly realising the need to adopt self-service 
technologies to include the millions of differently-abled people into the 
financial stream and NCR is committed to helping these institutions by 
providing technologies that are conceptualised, created, and manufactured in 
India.

   

  The NCR Talking ATM uses a text-to-speech engine which allows voicing-out 
the text on the screen in multiple languages for consumer convenience. Instead 
to issuing Special Cards for the customers with disabilities since it can 
become difficult to maintain track of whether the correct card has been issued, 
SBI has chosen to make its existing ATM network, AFA compliant by simply 
customising their existing ATM software stack and upgrading the hardware 
configuration of its ATM fleet.  India has one of the largest visually impaired 
populations in the world and hence the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) through its 
circulars in 2008 and 2009 stated that all banking services including ATM cards 
need to be offered to customers with disabilities without any discrimination.

   

  At the Antarchasku event, Dr. Sam Taraporevala, Director of XRCVC said, 
For the XRCVC it is a very proud moment to witness the roll out of a large 
number of SBI ATMs. Antarchakshu at JNU New Delhi, has the privilege of hosting 
one such ATM. The event will go a long way at creating the necessary awareness 
and sensitisation so necessary to promote financial, educational and employment 
opportunities.
