Hello everyone,

I'm sorry if you've seen this notice before but I'm still looking to add 
participants for a study I'm conducting.  The study seeks to address 
clothing questions using technology.  Our focus is the barriers currently 
faced by people with vision impairments with this very visual entity. 
Participants will use the application VizWiz to receive quick answers to 
questions specifically about clothing and fashion from sighted volunteers.  Use 
the system to ask questions such as “Does this outfit look okay for a 
formal party?” or “Does this shirt go with this tie?”  You can even use the 
application while you shop!  This study will run for approximately 6 months 
so we will hold a raffle each week for $20 to compensate our participants. 
 Note, it doesn't mean you have use the system everyday for 6 months, we 
just want you to use it as you see fit and provide feedback and complete an 
occasional online survey.

The only qualifications are being at least 18 years of age, proficient in 
English, and having an Apple device that supports the VizWiz application - 
either an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad.  Please contact me at 
umbc.clothing.st...@gmail.com if you are interested or would like more 
information.

Thank you,
