RNIB Tech Talk

Hello, Tech Talkers! Here's a warning - this episode is very lively... we've all been fuelled by strong coffee! On today's show, Steven chats with Brendan Lewis from RealSam, the makers of In Your Pocket, to talk about how the product can help blind and partially sighted people, and also to showcase a new handset device just launched. Also on the show, we delve deep into the swimming pool of emails! Aside from all the rogue Radio 4 mentions, we also talk about: the Echo Show 8, Fujitsu supercomputers, being irked, doubts over ARM-based Macs, backtap headaches on iOS14, Daniel voiced by John, monster big ones, the what3words app, Apple issues with braille displays, ripping the nob off, Bluetooth keyboards, and Spoonbill Hickok ...and Robin's PSA: dont go licking 5G masts! That link for In your Pocket is: inyourpocket.net Coffee aside, we are also fuelled by your emails! They are always fantastic, so to contribute you can email [email protected] for a future episode!

Ahoy hoy Tech Talk listeners - what a show we have today! It's braille-tastic! Friend of the show Karina Gregory makes a return to chat to Steven about the recently released Mantis Q40, which, controversially, has a QWERTY keyboard... oooft! Also, sticking with regular Tech Talk contributors, iSee host David Woodbridge has a new demonstration all about using braille with the Apple Watch. Will either of these features convince Robin to get back into braille? All that, plus Twitter and recent hacks, Zoom for Home, font sizes, missing jingles, TW Blue and Chicken Nugget, and Microsoft Outlook update issues. If you want to add to the pages upon pages (or should that be books?) of emails, and we promise we will focus solely on them in the next couple of shows, you can email [email protected] TTFN! x

Hello hello hello! Welcome to another Tech Talk. It's a Tech Talk of two halves this week; how exciting! Firstly Steven and Robin are joined by Read On host, and general all-round good egg Red Szell, who is in the market for a new computer. Is it true to say that buying a PC or Mac when you're blind or partially sighted requires a little bit more effort? The team talk to Red about his tech history, what he uses his computer for, and what's the team think is best for him. Then for the last half, Andy joins us to cover some more of your lovely emails - Echos with screens, as well as more talk on the Dolphin Easy Reader to name but a few. [email protected] for all your correspondence!

Hello TT fans! Here's what's on this weeks show:We hear all about the latest PlayStation game currently making headlines... for all the right accessible reasons! The Last of Us 2 is breaking down barriers, meaning gamers with disabilities can also enjoy it, which includes Ross Meegan, who we chat to.Speaking of games, this time of the board variety, we hear from a listener in India who would like to know if any accessible crossword puzzles and accessible Scrabble games exist, so that his students can work on improving their English vocabulary.We also hear about a new research project from Microsoft which could help improve image recognition apps like Seeing Ai or TapTap See.Also on the show: Andy doesn't know what a Sam Brown is, screens falling asleep, audio bass on speakers, a bit of praise and a bit of criticism, both via emails, and Steven listing technology over his wife and dog.... [email protected] for all your emails, and we promise to cover them in a future show.

We told you we had two treats for you this week... So, here we are, weirdly, on a Thursday! Steven and Robin return, and they've brought back Andy after his day off on Tuesday to go through the overflowing email inbox. So coming up on this show: Tackling Microsoft Teams, BlindSquare and accurate mapping via GPS, iPads, Audio Description levels, and of course we give another mention to the Turbo Scrub... it's getting so many mentions I think we should start getting advertising money! Also, for all you geeky audio fans out there that always ask about how we record the podcast, especially during lockdown, Andy, Steven and Robin detail what equipment they use to make the show sound so silky smooth, from microphones, mixing desks, audio interfaces, conference call software and audio recording software. As we covered a few more emails this week, now would be a good time to get your questions and comments in! [email protected] is the email address. Chat to you all next Tuesday!

Hello all! We have a couple of treats for you this week, TT fans! Firstly, today - Steven is joined by Robin Christopherson (from AbilityNet), and Shaun Preece (from... his shed) to discuss, dissect and disassemble Monday's WWDC from Apple... what was announced, what was not announced, and what about the new accessibility features that don't often get covered on the day? The trio talk about what they're most looking forward to. And the second treat? Well, you'll have to wait until Thursday for that...!

On Tech Talk this week, the team tackle the overflowing email inbox! This includes all the correspondence received on the screen reader chat from last week; which do you prefer? Narrator, NVDA or JAWS?Also on the show, we talk about Apple moving away from Intel's x86 chips to new processors of Apple's own design, recommendations for wireless headsets, and Steven gets to the bottom of the news that RNIB Book Library are (possibly) offering SD Cards containing 700 braille ready books.To email us, drop your message to [email protected] and it'll be read out on a future show!

So come natter with us at [email protected] and we'll read them out - and whisper it quietly... rumours around that the next show will be more focused towards emails, so now is a good time to write in!Until then, stay safe!

Welcome back to Tech Talk, everyone! We're still at home!On the show this week, Steven waxes lyrical over his massive new TV, and all the accessibility features it has, including audio description and voice guidance... he's very impressed! He can even see who is at his front door on it!

Poor Dougal! We talk about the rumours regarding the Apple Glass, Apple's supposed new wearable, which could be announced at the iPhone 12 event - is this an actual leak, or have Apple sneaked this information out, in order to gauge a reaction from the public after the Google Glass fiasco?

Hello, Tech Talk fans! Episode 325 is ready for your ears! We cover a handful of news items in today’s episode, chiefly the Microsoft Surface Go 2’s arrival; how does it compare with the rest of the ‘not-quite-a-tablet-not-completely-a-laptop’ market? Can anyone make a convincing case to buying it? Elsewhere Steven’s been glued to shopping channels during lock-down: he will soon be the proud owner of something called a ‘Turbo Scrub’! Will he get bored enough to give us a full review next week? Also WWDC is online-only this year, but we do have a date: June 22. More on that in later episodes... And then to emails, and not only are Robin and Steven apparently ready to open some kind of Swap Shop for tech, but we also cover drone parcel deliveries when deaf/blind, Facebook notifications, Optacon’s under the stairs, keyboards for El Braille, and the increasing problem with modern films which have a strong combination of mumbly dialogues, overly loud soundtracks as well as audio description... sensory overload! If you want to quiz, argue, moan, brag, complain, adulate… (or simply ask a question), you can do! Get those emails sent to [email protected] and you’ll get to hear Andy read them out in an upcoming episode.

It's absolutely chockablock in Tech Talk Towers today; there's no room to move! That's because we have Steven, Robin, Shaun and Andy all in attendance. Yes, Steven returns from his illness! You can tell, because there's extra waffle in this week's episode. Alongside the waffle, the gang talk about the iPhone SE, and Steven's first impressions, Intel to buy Moovit, Robin chats about a recent purchase - the Echo Show 8, there's talk about the Covid-19 tracking software being implemented, and we also hear about a new Microsoft AI for Accessibility funded project from City University London, called The ORBIT (Object Recognition for Blind Image Training) (https://orbit.city.ac.uk/) For all your email questions, fire them over to [email protected], and we'll answer them in a future episode (depending on the waffle levels).

Tech Talk is here to blow your isolation blues away! Robin and Andy welcome Shaun Preece back for another week as Steven recovers from his illness. The trio deal have a jam-packed show for you, including: The return of Fraggle Rock, now on Apple TV+, The arrival of Galloways and RNIB remote support via Be My Eyes, mental health with Headspace, an anniversary for Microsoft Disability Answer Desk, email topics including microwaves, and someone not liking the chat about Harry Potter! All that, plus news on the recent Zoom update, Apple Accessibility and thoughts on the upcoming WWDC, Shaun's new haircut, Andy moaning about the Dark Sky weather app disappearing from Android phones, and a very (very) brief chat about the iPhone SE... I predict more on this topic next week! As ever, drop your questions, queries, compliments, complaints and general musings to [email protected], and we'll get to them on a future show!

Well well well, what's this? A strange-yet-somewhat familiar voice is introducing you all to the podcast this week... could it be? Why yes! Yes it is! It's the return of the delectable, delightful, and at times deplorable... Shaun Preece! Last heard way back on episode 266... best blow the cobwebs off him first... Why is he back, you may ask? Well, Steven's poorly this week, so of course Shaun was more than happy to help out with presenting duties. He joins Robin and Andy this week to talk about all sorts of stuff, including: The arrival of the iPhone SE 2nd gen! Who among the Tech Talk team will end up buying one first? Also, March saw the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's 42nd anniversary: fans will remember the Babel Fish, so how close are the Echo buds to that translating technology?
