[Live] WEBCAST TODAY: Inspiring Accessibility Solutions from Today’s Virtual Reality Experiences – Thomas Logan

[ISOC_live]

This will be the first A11yVR meetup in AltVR, in contrast to
earlier events that were in Mozilla Hubs. Some may already be familiar with
AltVR as it was used for the recent virtual Burning Man. One thing that is
different is that we won't be able to drop the scribe real time text feed
into the space. It will  nevertheless be overlaid as captions on the
livestream. The AltVR developers however have pulled out, especially for
us, a new platform feature -  AI captions, which apparently will be in
Japanese! Since A11yVR is based in Tokyo, there is much rejoicing over the
prospect.
