<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’ve also had inquiries about AIRA. I’m also interested in your feedback - so please share to the list!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Along with Todd’s wonder about security/privacy, I’d add FERPA to that list since they might be looking at class type data…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Note: I did have one experience with a guide via a phone (I’m not remembering what service) and, luckily, the individual was with me as they were trying the service – they would have ended up in a dead end area because the agent was relying
on a map, and I believe glasses, and didn’t realize the street didn’t go through – a common occurrence on campuses!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">A couple of people on our campus have asked about AIRA, an app/service that connects blind people with remote agents to provide assistance with tasks in real time. If you
have had experience with this product, I'd love to hear your impressions. Pluses and deltas welcome.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

insights you can provide.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
