New Features from VRS Providers
27 10 2007All..
New features from VRS providers just came out and the following links show that.
Hawk Relay VRS DBRS click tab on DBRS
LifeLink VRS Pixes of Interpreters
And many other desirable features.
That is the essence of competition (free market). VRS providers are working hard in their R & D labs to come out with newer and better features and video phones. SNAPVRS recently released new video phone – OJO and many of you already have received these.
The rumor factory is running at full speed now. Will CSDVRS come out with a new video phone? Will SprintVRS come out with a pda/pager that can do VRS? These rumors are tantalizingly exciting.
However, I noticed that two major items that influence most of us; quality of video phone and qualified video interpreters. Although many features do play into my decision to choose a VRS provider, I would say 80% of my decision rests with quality of video interpreter.
I digress - sorry about that. Ok back to the issue of competition: all these features would NOT be possible if only one VRS provider was available. So it behooves on us deaf and hard-of-hearing persons to stress to the FCC that having wide choice of VRS providers is essential to keep quality of VRS high. Any decisions by the FCC, we need to make sure that multi-vendor continues to be the business standard for VRS industry.
That said, we are indeed in exciting times. I recently purchased a web camera that can track movement. Cool..my daughter had fun walking back and forth watching the web camera move to keep her in the video clip. Looked like the web camera is alive.Technology innovations are wonderful.
eyes open & thumbs up,
