<p class="MsoNormal">Ohio State has purchased this. One big benefit over just sending slides in advance is that the software monitors the meeting and advances the slides for screen reader users as well, keeping them updated with the content that is currently
being displayed in the Zoom shared screen.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It really is a neat little piece of technology, although it should be noted that content authors really should still be paying attention to the accessibility of their slides; if the slideshow is poorly structured or images are badly labelled
the usefulness of the automated technology is limited in the ways you would expect.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Has anyone used the product? It seems to me that simply sending the powerPoint file ahead of time to any print-disabled person would work as well, but maybe I’m missing something. For example, the end user needs to know how to pull up a
slide show. And this product claims to describe the graphics as well, something that JAWS can do with extra steps. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I will in July be presenting on a panel discussion with the company’s owner and I’m curious what people think of his products. They also do other forms of remediation for alternate media.<o:p></o:p></p>
