Project's details
| Project title | Shared audio described recordings of museum content for accessibility |
| Background | Museums present content in a visual format to patrons. with many visitors not experiencing tour guides due to time restraints or accessibility issues. VMWare and UC Davis are collaborating on a project which would allow vetted users to submit audio descriptions of museum content (such as paintings. sculptures. and antiques) to be shared with museums worldwide. |
| Description | The idea would be to allow museum patrons to access audio described content for museum content for guided tours and/or web hosted content. - Create a hosted service on VMWare - Full stack development - Test and improve software with stakeholders feedback - Accessible and responsive design - Ability to embed submitted audio to other sites - Accessible multimedia player |
| Deliverable | A prototype of the Audio Description Tool which allows users to submit audio files and link to web sites. or devices. to provide audio descriptions of web content. - Private or Public presentation rooms with voting/feedback capabilities. - Comprehensive documentation of code is required. |
| Skill set desirable | The ideal team will have experience with hosting and making audio content readily available. as well as web accessibility. - HTML. CSS. and Javascript (web development) |
