[Athen] Google Glass Captioning

[Jon McGough]

Thank you Alexa,



I probably didn't provide quite enough information in my first email.  We've got a couple CART providers who wear harnesses to strap on their steno machines, and can walk and type.  This study abroad is going to consists of about a dozen sessions that will be two hour walks around London and our CART provider will accompany the student on these sessions.  They should be close enough to each other, that I think Bluetooth will work.  That's why I'm mostly concerned mostly about the reception of captions.  I appreciate your ideas.



Thanks so much,



Jon



Hi Jon,



I might be missing something, but even before you think about making the receipt of captions mobile (you could do that with a phone, phablet or tablet, not just google glass), the real question is how will you make the production of captions mobile? Unless something's changed, captionists still need to use those special phonetic keyboards on little stands....
