new radio services on horizon
NPR, Harris Corporation and Towson University Launch Global Effort To
Make
Radio Accessible to Hearing and Sight Impaired
Tuesday January 8, 12:00 pm ET
First Over-The-Air Transmission From Special CES Station
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- (LVCC S227) -- NPR, Harris
Corporation and Towson University today announced a new initiative to
make
radio more accessible to the hundreds of millions of hearing and visually
impaired people around the world.
At a press conference at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the
three organizations announced the global accessible radio technology
initiative and provided the first live demonstration of the accessible
radio technology. The group also announced a new research center for
developing future technologies on the campus of Towson University near
Baltimore, MD. Additional plans call for the establishment of an
international consortium of equipment manufacturers,
broadcasters and other organizations to help foster broad adoption of the
initiative. The initiative will be spearheaded by the three founding
organizations and will leverage cutting-edge HD Radio(TM) technology to
enable hearing-impaired people to "see" live radio content on specially
equipped receivers by applying television closed-captioning processes to
radio broadcasts. The technology also will provide audio cues and voice
prompts, as well as advanced radio reading services, for those visually
impaired and blind.
"Digital radio technology makes it possible -- for the first time -- to
serve the sensory impaired," says Mike Starling, vice president and chief
technology officer of NPR. "Beyond developing the technology, this
initiative will ensure the accessibility of these radio services at
minimal
costs." During the press conference, the organizations showcased the
first
over-the-air transmission of the accessible radio technology using a
signal
from WX3NPR, a special temporary station authorized by the FCC for the
live
broadcast. Attendees at the press conference watched the text transcript
of
the NPR flagship morning news magazine "Morning Edition" on the HD Radio
receiver's viewing screen, which is what a hearing-impaired listener will
see using the technology.
Additionally, the demonstration carried a digital radio reading service
that will assist the visually impaired with daily readings of current
books, newspapers and magazines.
Following the demonstration, the participating organizations unveiled
details for the International Center for Accessible Radio Technology
(ICART), which will be headquartered at Towson University in Towson, MD.
Towson will house the primary administrative and academic research office
for the initiative, with NPR Labs in Washington, DC, providing technology
R&D and software development, and Harris Corporation supplying
transmission
and research support at its radio broadcast technology center in
Cincinnati, Ohio.
Members of the global initiative went on to detail plans to further study
and understand the challenges faced by the sensory-impaired population in
accessing radio broadcasts, and develop methodologies to address those
issues through cutting-edge technologies. To ensure that the effort
represents the widest range of participants and fosters the broadest
possible adoption, organizers
said they will work to bring together policymakers, broadcasters,
transmission equipment companies and receiver manufacturers from around
the
world. Presently, the initiative has more than a dozen members,
representing virtually every aspect of the "microphone to loudspeaker"
chain: broadcasters, network
content providers, infrastructure and transmission equipment companies,
and
receiver manufacturers. In addition to founding members NPR, Harris and
Towson University, supporting organizations include iBiquity Digital
Corporation,
elphi, NDS, Radiosophy, Helen Keller Institute, Carl and Ruth Shapiro
Family National Center for Accessible Media at WGBH(NCAM), Northern
Virginia Resource Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Persons, and the
G3ict, an Advocacy Initiative of the United Nations Global Alliance for
ICT
and Development. NPR, Harris and Towson will jointly determine strategic
direction of the organization, with assistance from the initiative's full
membership. NPR will provide much of the content, Harris will provide
much
of the transmission- related technologies, and Towson will provide
research
into the needs of the sensory-disabled
population and will house the primary ICART facility on its campus.
"We're working very closely with radio stations around the world to
ensure
they have the right technical infrastructure in place for this
initiative,"
said Howard Lance, chairman, president and chief executive officer of
Harris Corporation. "The new HD Radio transmission systems we're
installing
are tailor-made for this effort, as their digital capabilities will make
it
relatively easy for stations to transmit live textual transcripts to HD
Radio receivers." "There is tremendous need for accessible radio for
sensory-impaired people, including the deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind,
visually impaired, print impaired, deaf/blind, and mobility impaired,"
said
Dr. Ellyn Sheffield, assistant professor of psychology at Towson and
co-director of ICART. "There is no question this initiative will have a
profound impact on the quality of millions of people's lives. Finally,
sensory-disabled individuals will have access to all radio programming,
as
well as radio emergency alerts and vital disaster
recovery information."
HD Radio enables station operators to split their broadcasts up into
multiple channels, providing several CD-quality channels for their
audiences. Through this accessible radio initiative, a small amount of
the
total data capacity will be used to carry textual data that will be shown
live on a screen on new versions of HD Radio receivers, essentially
providing a closed- captioning transcript of live broadcasts for the
deaf.
Initially, the closed-captioning text will be created by live,
court-reporting-type captioners at individual stations and networks.
Ultimately, the initiative is hoping to leverage advanced speech-to-text
translation software applications that one day allow expansion of
captioning across the radio dial. Specially equipped HD Radio
receivers are in development with several features to provide the
visually
impaired audience with better access to broadcasts, such as audio prompts
that notify which direction the tuner is going, what channel the radio is
on, and larger, easier-to-read text on the radios.
More than 1,500 radio stations are currently broadcasting in HD Radio in
the United States. Over half of the CPB-qualified stations have been
awarded HD Radio conversion grants by the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting. According to current estimates, by 2013, all 825 public
radio
stations should be broadcasting digitally.
More information on the initiative can be found at
www.i-cart.net.

Hello Friends,
Sorry for trouble. Now I realized my mistake in formula and I have
corrected it successfully. With your kind cooperation and guidance I have

Dear list members,
Can I get the Oscar nominated Movie Barfi with audio description?
I watched this movie, but as the movie is all about a deaf and dum
boy, and a MR girl, there were not much of dialogs only actions. So
this movie did not interest me much.
But I seriously want to comprehend the theme and the emotions in the
flim.
Or, can we do anything to make this movie audio descriptive?
I have heard that it is an excellent movie to watch.
Regards!
Swati M Sharma

Hi All,
We all know; google books presents information in scanned form. Mobile
Preview (which to my knowledge presents things in text using OCR) does
not work for many books. So, is there any workable solution at this
time? Has anyone tried Tallyho (the screen reader) as a solution for
reading google books?
I would also like to know the accuracy of Tesseracts OCR (specially for
Hindi).

Amar Jain.

Here's one tip to disable programs/services that you may not want to
run at startup thus saving startup time:
1. Open the Run dialog box by pressing WINDOWS+R.
2. Type "msconfig" without quotation marks in the edit box and press
ENTER to open the System Configuration dialog box.
3. Switch to the Startup tab of the dialog box by pressing CTRL+TAB as
many times required.
4. This tab lists programs that are marked to start automatically at
startup. Uncheck the ones that you wish to disable.
5. Activate the OK button to apply changes and close the System
Configuration dialog box. Restart if required.
A word of caution:-
Disable programs that you are sure of not hampering your system. Use
the :Disable All" button only if you are 100% sure of what you're
doing.
