VoIP Solutions Summit Focus on Disability Access Issues Cary Barbin RERC on Telecommunications Access Gallaudet University

Opportunities Presented by IP Enabled Services Video –Conversation and relay service -- Already available –Ideal: See both interpreter and conversational partner, conference calls, online forums, etc. –“Quality of service” concept for video comparable to voice needed for functional equivalency –Broadband = Dialtone for visual communicators (including oral deaf and hard of hearing people who would like to lipread) –Streaming video: captioning and description?

Opportunities Presented by IP Enabled Services Language and mode of choice –Visual, textual, and vocal (including wideband audio) Simultaneous or alternating at choice of user Multiple streams possible –Information translation on demand

Opportunities Presented by IP Enabled Services Mobile IP-enabled devices allow deaf people to communicate while mobile –Potential is good if we have IP “text everywhere” and open protocol across carriers, tie in to relay services and PSAP Emergency –In future: Connecting with PSAP would connect Relay Center transparently –Location technology –3-Way video calls among PSAP, interpreter, and caller

Future Considerations Open platform concept –Permits development of niche applications as well as universal design –Open standards as concept in telecom needs to be retained Even niche products must support open standards for interoperability Ease of use Compatibility with old technology Authenticating users to prevent fraud
