[gui-talk] That Sonic Cane???

I think one should be very careful while commenting on new devices using his
or her experience from the 70s. Some of these devices and solution have
changed a lot. I used Miniguide and use Minitact (a French infrared obstacle
detector) and I like both. They are useful. I think laser is better than
ultrasounds although has some limitations too, but I wouldn't criticise the
device - I haven't held it. The only thing one can say - I think - is that
when you want to use a long range these 50 degrees will give you a lot of
signals. However the colour detection may be useful in some cases if it
works well.

>> Dear All,
>>
>> An update on progress thus far for you all...
>>
>> To date we've accumulated over 1,600 signatures to our protest list, it's
>> a great start so well done to all of you who have been rallying the
>> cause.
>>
>> Vodafone are now in negotiations with myself in terms of where to proceed
>> with the Access application and I can relay the following to you at this
>> time.
>>
>> Vodafone accepts that it has both a social and ethical as well as a legal
>> contractual obligation towards Wayfinder Access users, and this is a
>> really important statement believe me. It means that they know that they
>> cannot simply rinse their hands of us as a user group.
>>
>> At this time there are several options being discussed, one is to refund
>> users, either in full or in part. Another is based on a suggestion of
>> mine
>> to exchange WFA licenses for an alternative accessible GPS product. This
>> would have to not cost them more necessarily than a direct refund, but it
>> has merits especially if we can show that there's a real media risk of
>> damage to them if they don't help us out.
>>
>> Please do not press too much for detail on this as I cannot give it to
>> you,
>> but in essence assume Vodafone had to in some degree refund users,
>> that would amount to figure `x`, if we could use this same amount to buy
>> in mass an alternative accessible option this could work for us.
>>
>> One or two other options are on the table at this time, which I cannot
>> say
>> more about, as the logistics and commercial viability is still being
>> looked
>> into, but this is a great start and one we should be proud of.
>>
>> Today Rory Heap and I took part in a BBC In Touch radio interview being
>> aired tomorrow evening on BBC Radio 4. I'm sure that those of you outside
>> the UK will be able to download it, and hopefully Tim will be able to set
>> it up
>> on the protest site.
>>
>> What happens next, now more than ever, as we enter the very heart of the
>> negotiation can we not afford to have a slow down on sign ups to our
>> protest. If Vodafone see that we've reached our pinnacle of signatories
>> they may assume that 1,600 is the maximum number of supporters our cause
>> has, this is most certainly not a few that we wish to convey.
>>
>> So it's essential that we redouble our efforts to sign people up. Resend
>> the
>> message to your mailing lists, get friends, family and work colleagues to
>> sign up. It takes just a minute and people can choose to do it privately
>> if
>> they wish. Be sure they know just how much Access means to you and how
>> it's essential that they understand that their support could directly
>> influence
>> Vodafone's decision.
>>
>> A few bits of good news:
>>
>> Way finder's CEO has assured me that service isn't going to just stop,
>> not
>> at all, so no matter when service does eventually stop, we're going to
>> know
>> with a good lead time. Wayfinder are sympathetic and conscious of our
>> position and their obligations. These are all excellent things to know
>> and be
>> assured of.
>>
>> He did though say that the time will come and it is likely not to be 12
>> months
>> away but sooner.
>>
>> For now that's it, please people, now more than ever we need to show our
>> selves as being in favour of this product. So let's get out there and get
>> people's names on our list.

>> Hi All,
>>
>> There have been a few questions over the last couple of weeks on this
>> list regarding JAWS and FaceBook. I'll see if I can clarify a couple of
>> things here and also suggest a couple of ways to make FaceBook work a
>> bit better. I won't be telling you how to use FaceBook since there are a
>> lot of aspects of it I haven't even looked at myself and probably never
>> will.
>>
>> This information assumes you're using JAWS version 11. Jaws 10 may work
>> ok but FaceBook is using technology it doesn't work with very well. Also
>> you'll probably have issues if you're not yet running Internet Explorer
>> 8. I have been told that you can access it using Firefox but have not
>> tested this myself.
>>
>> The standard FaceBook page is accessible. You do not need to use the
>> Mobile version although you can if you wish to. Navigating the standard
>> one however is actually easier since it uses headings to separate each
>> section of the page. The mobile version does not do this which makes it
>> harder to get around. FaceBook's pages don't have too much clutter so
>> it's not hard to skip things you don't want to look at.
>>
>> Learn your JAWS navigation keys for the web especially heading
>> navigation. Pressing h will skip you forward through headings and Shift
>> h will move you back up the page. If you reach the last heading and
>> press h again it will wrap around to the top again.
>>
>> Learn how to use Place Markers. These can be extremely useful on a lot
>> of sites. JAWS Place Markers can be anchored to text so even if that
>> part of the page moves you will still find it.
>>
>> Finally I strongly suggest you make a change to your JAWS configuration.
>> This will allow some of the links that don't read properly to work.
>>
>> 1. Go to www.facebook.com.
>>
>> 2. Press JawsKey Shift V. this will set up a configuration for FaceBook
>> only. Anything you change in here won't affect other web sites. You can
>> do this for any web site and it will override the default settings.
>>
>> 3. Press L until you hear JAWS say "Links Options". Arrow down to "Text
>> Links". This is most likely set to "show - using screen text". Press the
>> space bar until you hear JAWS say "show - using title". Now press enter.
>>
>> That should allow some of the links at the top of the FaceBook page that
>> may not be reading properly to work as they should.

>>
>> SEOUL, Korea (AVING Special Report on 'Hong Kong Electronics Fair
>> 2010') -- <Visual News> Primpo Co., Ltd. (CEO Jai Kim, www.primpo.com)
>> will introduce its revolutionary new cane product for the visually
>> impaired, "Isonic", at the Hong Kong Electronics Fair, to be held for
>> four days from April 13 to 16, 2010. The company will participate in the
>> exhibition as part of a project initiated by the district administration
>> of Gangnam-gu, to assist Korean firms in their overseas marketing
>> activities.
>>
>> Unlike conventional white canes, with which a user can not detect
>> obstacles above waist height, the "Isonic" model can detect obstacles
>> within a range of 25 degrees horizontally and 50 degrees vertically with
>> an integrated supersonic sensor.
>>
>> The product can also detect obstacles within a distance of 2 meters,
>> as well as very slim objects, narrower than 3cm. With decreasing distance
>> to an object, the cane's vibrating indicator sends a stronger signal to
>> the user, pinpointing the location of the obstacle.
>>
>> A feature to inform a visually impaired user of an object's color
>> draws special attention. With a color sensor attached, the user is
>> informed by voice messages of 10 detectable colors and their brightness,
>> including red, orange and blue.
>>
>> Field tests conducted with 15 people in September of 2009 yielded
>> very satisfying results.
>>
>> The CEO of Primpo, Jai Kim, said, "The ultimate functionality of the
>> "Isonic" is to allow the visually impaired to move around freely without
>> having to rely on a conventional cane. Prior to developing this product,
>> we conducted a survey with more than 600 handicapped students and
>> teachers. Among others, the color indication feature drew the most
>> attention."
