[AI] FW: IHT.com Article: For the blind, technology does what a guide dog can't
For the blind, technology does what a guide dog can't By Miguel Helft The New York Times Sunday, January 4, 2009 T. V. Raman was a bookish child who developed a love of math and puzzles at an early age. That passion didn't change after glaucoma took his eyesight at the age of 14. What changed is the role that technology and his own innovations played in helping him pursue his interests. A native of India, Raman went from relying on volunteers to read him textbooks at a top technical university there to leading a largely autonomous life in Silicon Valley, where he is a highly respected computer scientist and an engineer at Google. Along the way, Raman built a series of tools to help him take advantage of objects or technologies that were not designed with blind users in mind. They ranged from a Rubik's Cube covered in Braille to a software program that can take complex mathematical formulas and read them aloud, which became the subject of his Ph.D. dissertation at Cornell. He also built a version of Google's search service tailored for blind users. Raman, 43, is now working to modify the latest technological gadget that he says could make life easier for blind people: a touch-screen phone. "What Raman does is amazing," said Paul Schroeder, vice president for programs and policy at the American Foundation for the Blind, which conducts research on technology that can help visually impaired people. "He is a leading thinker on accessibility issues, and his capacity to design and alter technology to meet his needs is unique." Some of Raman's innovations may help make electronic gadgets and Web services more user-friendly for everyone. Instead of asking how something should work if a person cannot see, he says he prefers to ask, "How should something work when the user is not looking at the screen?" Such systems could prove useful for drivers or anyone else who could benefit from eyes-free access to a phone. They could also appeal to aging baby boomers with fading vision who want to keep using technology they've come to depend on. Raman's approach reflects a recognition that many innovations designed primarily for people with disabilities have benefited the broader public, said Larry Goldberg, who oversees the National Center for Accessible Media at WGBH, the public broadcasting station in Boston. They include curb cuts for wheelchairs, captions for television broadcasts and optical character-recognition technology, which was fine-tuned to create software that could read printed books aloud and is now used in many computer applications, he said. With no buttons to guide the fingers on its glassy surface, the touch-screen cellphone may seem a particularly daunting challenge. But Raman said that with the right tweaks, touch-screen phones many of which already come equipped with GPS technology and a compass could help blind people navigate the world. "How much of a leap of faith does it take for you to realize that your phone could say, 'Walk straight and within 200 feet you'll get to the intersection of X and Y,' " Raman said. "This is entirely doable." ADVOCATES for the blind have long complained that technology companies have done a generally poor job of making their products accessible. The Web, while opening many opportunities for blind people, is still riddled with obstacles. And sophisticated screen-reader software, which turns documents and Web pages into synthesized speech, can cost more than $1,000. Even with a screen reader, many sites are hard to navigate. Last year, the National Federation of the Blind reached a settlement of a landmark class-action lawsuit against one company whose site advocates found unusable, Target. In the settlement, the retailer agreed to make its Web site accessible to blind people. The federation assesses the usability of Web sites and currently certifies only a handful as being fully accessible. One challenge is that technology often evolves much faster than the guidelines that ensure Web sites work well with screen readers. In December, the World Wide Web Consortium, an Internet standards group, released Version 2.0 of its accessibility guidelines for Web sites. The previous version dated back to 1999, when the Web consisted largely of static Web pages rather than interactive applications. Obstacles on the Web take many forms. A common one is the Captcha, a security feature consisting of a string of distorted letters and numbers that users are supposed to read and retype before they register for a new service or send e-mail. Few Web sites offer audio Captchas. Some pages are just poorly designed, like e-commerce sites where the "checkout" button is an image that isn't labeled so screen readers can find it. "The overwhelming percentage of the industry really hasn't stepped up to the plate to provide the blindness community with equal access to their products," said Eric Bridges, director of advocacy and governmental affairs at the American Council of the Blind

Re: [AI] podcast on loadstone
greetings rajesh sir and all accessindians. for me, the podcast just downloads fine, but i do use a download manager, getright for that purpose so it mite be possible that its not working for you. i'm not sure if the server's link is for streaming the audio content directly or download, but either way, i think we can save the file. just let the file fully downloaded to be opened, and when it opens in your media player, pause the file, and then from file menu, select the option called " save as." save the file as mp3, at your specified location. i hope this should store the file permanently on your hard drive. if this doesn't works, try downloading using firefox or some download manager which handles the file ftp requests in a better way then IE. with warm regards, ruchir. -- As long as forever, I will stay by your side, I'll be your companion, Your friend and your guide!!! www.ruchir89.wordpress.com To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] twitter - all about it.
i've been using this very popular micro blogging social networking site since last 3 months, and i've found it quite interesting so thought i'd share this with you all. its called twitter. introduction taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter what is twitter Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters, displayed on the user's profile page and delivered to other users who have subscribed to them (known as followers). Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow anybody to access them. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or external applications. The service is free to use over the Internet, but using SMS may incur phone service provider fees. Since its creation in 2006 by Jack Dorsey , Twitter has gained extensive notability and popularity worldwide. It is sometimes described as the "SMS of the Internet," my personal experience with twitter: due to various features, for example, images, video, extensive profiles, and zillion of options 1 would normally never uses, i've not liked social networking sites in particular. that may be because of its nested complex interface, extra and unwanted features, or need of opening the website to use all the time, and my busy schedule, all added up to me, creating accounts everywhere and hardly ever using them. i'm on orkut, facebook, myspace, and there are a few i even don't remember. what makes twitter better from my prospective is its simplicity. it just asks you 1 very simple question, " what are you doing?" and expects your answer to be precise with in the limits of 140 characters. there's no file shareing, fans, communities, and you don't need website window opened always to use it. you make a account at twitter, start following peoples, and whenever you post something, peoples who are following you can see your message. interface is simple, and then we have bunch of applications to use -- on your computer as well onn your mobile phone if you have internet/gprs activated on your mobile. to elaborate it further, here are few audio podcasts you can try to better understand and use twitter : Twitter From A Blindness Perspective 5/21/2009 Erin Edgar introduces Twitter including how to create an account, setting up your profile, and posting updates, then discusses conventions and accessibility, especially with the CAPTIA. 46.6 MB http://media.libsyn.com/media/bct/bct1355TwitterFromABlindnessPerspective.mp3 McTwit 5/6/2009 Rick Harmon demonstrates this accessible Twitter client from www.empowermentzone.com. 41.3 MB http://media.libsyn.com/media/bct/bct1352McTwit.mp3 Jibjib 3/13/2009 Simon Eigeldinger demonstrates this accessible twitter client that runs on Symbian smartphones from www.jibjib.org. 24.4 MB http://media.libsyn.com/media/bct/bct1331Jibjib.mp3 and after all this, if you're signing up for twitter, please follow ruchirfalodiya that's of corse me. regards, ruchir. -- As long as forever, I will stay by your side, I'll be your companion, Your friend and your guide!!! www.ruchir89.wordpress.com To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] telescopic cane
Well, the telescopic cane is what it really says, telescopic. Unlike the folding canes, the different pieces of a telescopic cane, go inside the pieces above it. This is more or less similar to the telescopic antena that we find short wave or medium wave radios. The bottom piece of a telescopic cane is the narrowest and the top one is the widest.

[AI] IT resource and training centre for the VI in Delhi
The Oldest Eye Hospital of the City Launches a New Initiative - ‘Ujagar’ it’s IT Resource and Training Center for the Visually Impaired & Low Vision Persons! Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital, established in 1914 and having the distinction of being the oldest eye care institute of the city, takes a new initiative to empower the visually impaired persons by launching its unique IT Resource and Training Centre for the Visually Impaired and Low Vision Persons on 27th March 2009. With more than 2 million blind and low vision persons in the country and with very few centres to provide training in information technology for them, importance of the initiative taken by Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital cannot be undermined. Through this resource and training centre, education and employment oriented training skills including computers, communication skills, interview-giving skills etc will be provided to visually impaired persons in order to make them a part of the inclusive society. The project is funded by Adobe India and Charities Aid Foundation. According to Mr. A. K. Arora, CEO, Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital, “our strategy is just not to provide medical intervention, but rather, ensure an overall development of the visually impaired persons. This project will go a long way in achieving this end.” Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital has been providing comprehensive rehabilitation services for the blind and low vision persons through its Vision Rehabilitation and Enhancement Center in New Delhi for more than eight years and Community Based Rehabilitation in Alwar District of Rajasthan under the able leadership of Ms. Sachu Ramalingam, Consultant, Vision Rehabilitation Services. According to Ms Ramalingam, “To ensure availability of latest training and technology is important if the visually impaired need to be equipped to meet the new challenges of the job market and that is what we are facilitating!” This first of its kind initiative will not only function as a IT training facility but will also be a resource centre for the visually challenged, where any visually challenged person can become a member and use the latest technology such as the KNFB reader available here for reading print materials or convert print into accessible formats.

[AI] Visually impaired who set their sights on success
Hi every one! Is someone who is covered in this feature there on the AI List? regards Visually impaired who set their sights on success By *Soudhriti Bhabani *| 04 June 2009 | 9:10am Kolkata, June 4 (IANS) Mohammad Asif Iqbal, 30, went door-to-door to enlist in a private tutorial before appearing in a management entrance exam, but was refused every time. Reason: he was visually impaired. But Iqbal finally cracked the entrance test on his own. Kolkata, June 4 (IANS) Mohammad Asif Iqbal, 30, went door-to-door to enlist in a private tutorial before appearing in a management entrance exam, but was refused every time. Reason: he was visually impaired. But Iqbal finally cracked the entrance test on his own. Iqbal, now working as a senior consultant in an MNC firm after passing out from a prominent private MBA institute in Pune, is not the only one who succeeded. There are many who rose above the social impediment and succeeded in different walks of life. People like Dilip Loyalka, a chartered accountant by profession, Ashish Jha, an IT security specialist working in an MNC software firm, and Vikram Dalmia, a successful entrepreneur, faced similar hurdles and proved themselves winners. 'We're as able as anybody else in society,' Loyalka said. It was an interactive seminar, jointly organised by the trade body Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Welfare Society for the Blind, where people with disabilities (PWD) came and shared their experience of life and especially their struggle to combat day-to-day odds. 'We (the visually impaired citizens) don't want sympathy from people but we're looking for opportunities to prove our ability to work and perform like any normal man,' Iqbal said. According to the 2001 census, there are over 21 million people in India - equivalent to 2.1 percent of the population - who are suffering from one or the other kind of disability. Among all types of disability, visual impairment is the most prevalent, contributing almost 48.5 percent of the total figure. India has a law, Persons with Disabilities Act, that focuses on equal opportunities and protection of rights for persons with disabilities. India recently ratified the UN convention to promote and protect the rights of PWDs (persons with disabilities). 'But the nation has hardly been successful in integrating people with disabilities into the mainstream. So, it is essential to create awareness about the role of technology in empowering people with disabilities,' a CII official said. She said the CII would also conduct a survey to find out the position of PWDs in India and how they are placed in the industry with regard to proper job facilities.

[AI] Microsoft Outlook Users Beware!!!!
Phishing Attempts Made on Microsoft Outlook Users http://www.techtree.com/India/News/Phishing_Attempts_Made_on_Microsoft_Outlook_Users/551-102831-582.html Techtree News Staff, Jun 04, 2009 1813 hrs IST The phishing message carries an email address with name Support Phishing attacks have often been launched on the social networking sites Facebook , Myspace and number of others. Now, the hackers have started launching phishing attacks to email accounts. Sarah Calaunan, fraud analyst at security solution provider Trend Micro, wrote on the company's official blog that phishing attacks targeting Microsoft Outlook were reported. The new phishing attack targets Microsoft Outlook users by sending them alert to re-configure their Outlook. On clicking, the user is lead to a phishing site with name Microsoft.com with something in prefix where in his login credentials are asked. This is dangerous since the phishing message carries an email address with name Support and thus, many users might fall for the trap. Do not fall for such traps and in case you find any message in your Micrsooft Outlook folder, delete it immediately. The attack will only be successful when user commits the mistake of entering his login credentials on the phishing site. Later, the hacker would be able to steal critical information. -- As long as forever, I will stay by your side, I'll be your companion, Your friend and your guide!!! www.ruchir89.wordpress.com To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Harish sir, The pen drive is read properly on other systems. It is just that this compact laptop does not read. I am not sure about the drive light glowing, but no CD is read..none at all. What is the difference between a slave drive and a master drive? Asking the service station to replace the HCL laptop will not work. It is already out of warrantee. But if it is on full charge and if I don’t use it for a day or two, it generally retains its full charge. So there is no problem on that front. Will wait to hear from you. M.

[AI] about Dr. Jitender aggarwal
Dear friends Hello I am a dental surgeon by profession. I completed my dentistry in 1998. I practiced for six years then my visual impairment happened. After my visual impairment, this was end of the road for me. My friend told me that a VI can operate the computer. He took me to NAB rk puram by their help I learnt the art of computer. Then I learnt the art of medical transcription. I worked from home as a medical transcriptionist. Then I thought of spreading this knowledge to other VI. So I roam around India. There are only three centers in India. One is in Mumbai, Chennai and banglore. In the month of April, I visited banglore center. It was excellent. Their first batch student has already been placed in the companies. By the help of enable India we are starting sarthak medical transcription for VI in Delhi. I think in and around north India there is no mtvi center. Enable India especially Shanti ma’am is supporting this programme. Medical transcription companies will be involving in the training process from first day onwards so employment is not a problem. I hope you can tell about this programme to everyone who is dedicated to do it. If you want any information you can contact us at 9718711463. You can send your queries on sarthak...@gmail.com.

[AI] what is medical transcription programme
MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION PROGRAMME Dear Medical Transcription Student: Welcome to the exciting and vitally important career of medical transcription. I hope that you will maintain an eager interest and excitement about your course of study. Soon, you will begin to experience the fascination and appreciation for medicine that working medical transcriptionists have come to enjoy. Because medicine is ever changing and because people and their problems are never boring, I can assure you that you will be always learning and interested in your work. Medical transcription is both an exacting science and an artistic accomplishment. It is important to have a combination of skills including spelling, proofreading, knowledge of medical terminology, and typing and a firm background in English grammar, structure, and style. The successful medical transcriptionist has both accuracy and speed: a broad knowledge of anatomy; and a thorough knowledge of medical, surgical, drug, and laboratory terms, in addition, it is important to know how to use standard medical and nonmedical reference materials. An exciting career as a medical transcriptionist awaits you. AN INTRODUCTION TO MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION First, let me introduce you to medical transcription and medical transcriptionists. You will notice that I use the term “transcriptionist.” A transcriber is the machine, which plays a dictated report through our headset so that we may transcribe it. It is not the person who transcribes. If there’s one thing that transcriptionist are known for, it is our love for words. This is a common thread in our profession. It is what gives a kinship, and it one of the things that make us professionals. If I were cast away on a desert island, the book I would probably want to take with me is an unabridged English dictionary, and I could be happy for years. Transcriptionist can get lost in a dictionary. We look up a word and we see something else that looks interesting, and then we look up another word, and so on. Words are truly exciting. I would much rather have a dozen new medical words all researched and defined that a 5-pound box of candy. I hope that you too will come to share this feeling. THE SPIRIT OF MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION Medical transcriptionists are very special people. We are workers who sign our initials on each finished product; we are craftspersons in a modern age, we are practitioners of communication, we are the magicians of medical terminology, the masters of grammar and punctuation, and our expertise flows through related areas such as pharmacology and sophisticated new instruments from the operating room. We are in key position as a member of the healthcare team, we break the sound barrier every day, and we are the trained ears who create sense out of many diverse accents and sometimes just plain nonsense. We have a surgical precision all our own, a knifelike wit at times, and our own scalpel-sharp intelligence, we have that attention to detail, that sparkle, that scintillating compulsion to look things up, did the patient see a neurologist or a urologist? We look it up in the patient’s chart. What is the patient’s middle initial, proper name, zip code, area code? There are crazy days when every second word is a spelling nightmare, like pipe fitter, Albuquerque, Quonset hut, vis-à-vis. Hand me the dictionary, please, every day is like a treasure hunt in an ocean of words. Education, books, words-we want to know everything. We also have sensitivity, humor, a sense of responsibility and ethics, and most importantly, we have excellence, we are professional serving the healthcare consumer-the patient. Medical transcriptionists know more about a patient than anyone else the physician. We wade through gallons of urinalysis and rivers of blood samples, and we know the chemical state of patients as well as the most intimate details of their social history. Marching across our view each day are life and death, struggle with disease, social problems, and sometimes, thank goodness, human comedy. When we transcribe a birth record, we breathe a silent “welcome on board” to the new arrival, when a discharge summary becomes a death summary, often we are saddened, no matter how old the patient, we have heard it all and transcribed it all-the blood, the pain, the surprising recoveries, the agonizing losses, the inexplicable reversals, the courage, the toughness, the incredible human body’s ability to take punishment, from the blood test to the barium enema, from chemotherapy to colostomy, we see the whole picture, form the incompreshensive patient names to patients from strange-sounding places-geopolitical smudges on maps we never glanced at until recently. Why do we care? Why this magnificent mania for learning and excellence? One reason is that we have sympathy-for the sick, for the elderly, for the patient who cannot speak English, for everyone put on hold too often and too long and forced to listen to canned, tinny
[AI] DRISHTI, For The Blind
Drishti, an interactive personal navigation system, developed at the University of Florida, could someday guide the blind through corridors and along busy city sidewalks. The heart of the system is wearable computer about the size of a thick paper-back book, witch is worn on the user’s waist, runs Windows 98 and is voice-controlled with an interface that uses IBM’S Via Voice software. the computer is connected to a Global Positioning System [GPS] receiver carried on the user’s back, witch keeps track of the latitude and longitude. As the user navigates the route given by the computer, the system compares data from the GPS receiver with data from the GIS [geographical information system] to define the route and warn if the user is off the course or even away from the centre of the sidewalk. When the user gives the voice commands to ask for directions, the system responds with verbal instruction giving distances in feet and providing corrective guidance along the way. Refreshable Electronic Braille Sheet Researchers at the University of Tokyo have fabricated a flexible, shock-resistant, lightweight Braille Sheet Display on an extremely fine plastic film. The effective display size is 4X4 centimeters. Each character consists of a 3X2 array of Braille dots, and the total number of dots is 144. thus, 24 characters [four lines of six] can be displayed at a time. The total thickness of the device is 1 millimeter, and the weight is 5.3 grams. The researchers predict the sheet will make it possible to produce pocket-sized Braille electronic book. thanks, mukesh jain.
