NCBI Labs Technology Live Event 43
Coming up on this Live Event we have an interview with Sky to find out about a new Voice Guidance feature recently introduced to the Sky Q box. Joining a suite of other accessibility features available on the Sky Q box, Voice Guidance turns all items on the screen into spoken output to make navigating the platform’s TV guide, menus, Show Centres, collections, and on-screen messages much easier for those with visual impairments.
To find out more about this exciting development we will be joined by Fraser Stirling, Sky's Group Chief Product Officer, Clare Davidson, Digital Accessibility Manager, and David Nason, Accessibility Compliance Lead.
Also this week, on Meet the Team we catch up with Kyran O'Mahoney, Chief Technology Officer with NCBI.
