Subject: [AI] A new Mastercard design is meant 
to make life easier for visually impaired users


Â

The new Touch Cards from Mastercard have 
different-shaped notches cut into the sides to 
help customers who are visually impaired find 
the right card by touch alone. The Touch Card 
credit card has a round notch, the debit card 
has a squarish notch and the prepaid card has a triangular notch.


Mastercard

Approaching a register to pay for a morning 
coffee, for many, probably feels routine. The 
transaction likely takes no more than a few 
seconds: Reach into your wallet, pull out a debit or credit card and pay. Done.


But for customers who are visually impaired, the 
process of paying can be more difficult.


With credit, debit and prepaid cards moving 
toward flat designs without embossed names and 
numbers, bank cards all feel the same and cause 
confusion for people who rely on touch to discern differences.


One major financial institution is hoping that 
freshly designed bank cards, made especially for 
blind and sight-impaired customers, will make life easier.


Mastercard will distribute its new Touch Card — 
a bank card that has notches cutt into the sides 
to help locate the right card by touch alone — to UU.S. customers next year.


"The Touch Card will provide a greater sense of 
security, inclusivity and independence to the 
2.2 
billion peoplearound the world with visual 
impairments," Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing 
and communications officer, said in a statement. 
"For the visually impaired, identifying their 
payment cards is a real struggle. This tactile 
solution allows consumers to correctly orient 
the card and know which payment card they are using."


Credit cards have a round notch; debit cards 
have a broad, square notch; and prepaid cards 
have a triangular notch, the company said.


Virginia Jacko, who is blind and president and 
chief executive of Miami Lighthouse for the 
Blind and Visually Impaired Inc., 
told 
The 
Wall Street Journal that feature also addresses 
an important safety concern for people with vision problems.


People with vision problems would no longer have 
to ask strangers for help identifying which card they need to use, Jacko said.


The new feature was developed with the Royal 
National Institute of Blind People in the U.K. 
and VISIONS/Services for the Blind and Visually 
Impaired in the U.S., according to both organizations.

Re: [AI] Call for names of inaccessible apps/websites

2021-11-08 Thread Sandesh
Actually, I did check this with sighted person but Ola does not show fair 
estimates. I will put this issue to Ola. it is problem with all, hence no 
accessibility specific.


Good initiative indeed and person like me who always does write to different 
different developers for these problems have now multiple hands and 
universal voice to rely upon.


Good initiative once again. We should continuously do the work on this in 
whatever possible ways according to one's capabilities.

Hi Everyone,

Along with some like-minded people, I have started an initiative aimed
at constructively engaging with the developers of inaccessible
apps/websites to make them more accessible for the visually challenged
in particular and the disabled in general. We have plenty of people as
volunteers for this work. The first [and preferred] strategy is to
engage in structured negotiation with them. Failing that, however, we
have the wherewithal and desire to opt for legal remedies.

At this stage, we're collating a list of inaccessible apps/websites.
We will reach out to developers in a phased manner. The focus right
now is more on the private sector. Government websites and apps
require a different approach and hence will be addressed separately
and perhaps later.

If you can share with me the names of apps/websites that you use on a
regular basis that are inaccessible, that would be great. I might ask
you for specific inputs in terms of what the accessibility barriers
precisely are at a later stage in the process. Thanks a lot.

Warmly,
Rahul

Re: [AI] Android 12 and Talkback Performance

2021-11-08 Thread Vetrivel Murugan Adhimoolam
Hi Amar,

Except the advantage of having numbers on the same keyboard, IPhone
typing is much better and gap between icons are much organized than
android models. Also, the bottum of the screen in android has more
traffic jam than IPhone in terms of the back button, home button etc.
It is much easier to switch to the main home screen in apple than
android phones. I am also told that android phones with higher cost
have better performence, but I would always go for IPhone if cost is
not a concern. Of course, it will be another few years before you can
see 5G taking off in India.

Vetri.
