00:00:04,220 --> 00:00:08,020
Imagine if you could only communicate with your family by writing.

2
00:00:13,700 --> 00:00:16,460
Sometimes it's just easier to speak.

3
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:20,620
One of the advances of technology is voice recognition.

4
00:00:20,620 --> 00:00:22,060
Whether it's searching the web:

5
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,740
"Nineteenth century architecture."

6
00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:29,440
Dictating emails.

7
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,560
Or controlling your navigation app.

8
00:00:39,780 --> 00:00:42,300
Many people with physical disabilities

9
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:44,180
rely on voice recognition to use the computer.

10
00:00:44,180 --> 00:00:45,280
"Place order."

11
00:00:49,060 --> 00:00:52,860
But for that to happen websites and apps need to be properly coded.

12
00:00:54,860 --> 00:00:55,980
"Cancel?"

13
00:00:55,980 --> 00:00:58,960
Voice recognition can help lots of other people

14
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,100
with temporary limitations too, like an injured arm.

15
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:01,860
"Place order."

16
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,040
It can also prevent injuries becoming worse,

17
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,000
like RSI: Repetitive Stress Injury.

18
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,500
Or for people simple preferring voice.

19
00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:18,500
"Place Order."

20
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,020
Web accessibility: Essential for some, useful for all.
