Nico,
Thank you for checking out my videos. I plan on making another set on
Monday to show the software in action with one of the users.
The Grid 2 is very expensive for folks that are disabled, but it is a
wonderful solution. Each one of those "Grids" can be modified on the fly
to rearrange ch
Patti,
That sounds very interesting, I hope I can help you in some way with your
project.
Thanks!

Hi William,
I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Puerto Rico who is using
Simon to build a generic spoken programming language for speech recognition
systems for which you can create language specific scenarios. My students

Dear Jason,
I got interested by your writing and looked up the articles. I guess
these two are the ones you refer to, dating back to 2013:

Thanks Will,
that was very insightful. The interface seemed very cumbersome to me as
a regular user and I was already thinking about more time-efficient ways
to structure the keyboard characters.
Looking further into it I found that for The Grid apparently custom
keyboards are available for scannin

There is work underway, however, to develop high-quality speech recognition

All,
I created 2 videos to explain to another community that I was working with
2 years ago. I was never able to get all the way through the process
because of a serious family illness which took up my time. Regardless,
some of the information is not relevant to starting out with GNOME

Hi,
I know The Grid, we have several users of this software. Here costs
around 500€. Is far from perfect, but reasonably easy to use and
adaptable to extreme cases (support for eye trackers, multiple scanning
options, etc.). It would be great to have something like that as open
source.

My strengths are not in programming, but I could put together a video of
several people who have disabilities using expensive proprietary software
to illustrate what sort of functionality we are talking about for folks.
Let me know if you would like me to.

Caribou was designed to be a replacement for GOK and support scanning
features as well. I think there may be some support buried in there that I
started work on. It's been a while...
Anyway, speech recognition sounds like a great idea too.

Hi all.
I'm a bit confused because I swear we updated the wiki to reflect that
we stopped having weekly meetings in favor of using the mailing list for
as-needed coordination and discussion. I'll make that change now. For
reference:

Well I suppose that I will try to join their next meeting. Is anyone else
interested in doing so?

I am familiar with GOK, and actually tracked down the original authors of
that software. I believe they were from the University of Toronto, and
were no longer interested in doing that. I am not sure about caribou. I
think a nice solution would be to integrate switch/pointer access in

Hi Will,
Following your lead, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Brian, I'm
also interested in getting involved with the GNOME accessibility team.
I've been monitoring the GNOME developers and Orca list for a little
while now and figure this is as good a time as any to jump in.

Not sure, not much into Gnome specific development, but in the past
there were efforts devoted to a project called GOK [1]. It was a

has been replaced by Caribou [2]. Not sure about its current status. The

I am going to try out your Viacam project with one of my individuals at the
beginning of next week.
I would like to get a project going that would bring switch access to Gnome
via a programmable on-screen keyboard.
How can something like this get started?
Thanks!
