Apologies: Lady Jackie McBrearty
A large black cloud hung over the meeting, when we learned from Paul, that
Lady Jackie was not attending today.
In Fact Jackie was working hard on finding solutions to the problems
pertaining to the Bank of Ireland app.
Last week, I omitted some good information from Tom.
He is using Navi Lens, and has got links to the app, and has downloaded the
information, and using this has used this to help him find places and
objects much better.
Also he has sent the relevant links to Albert to get him involved.
Sandy Tomkins has posted a u tube video on Navi lens 360 vision during the
last day or so, and it looks fantastic.
You can get a code on your phone which works like a magnet, and will bring
you to your bus stop for instance.
Tom downloads the paper files from Navi Lens, the paper comes in various
sizes.
You can print off the paper, and cut into whatever size or shape you want,
then one can dictate the description into the QR code for instance
Marmalade and stick on the jar of marmalade, then in future, your phone will
tell you what the jar contains .
Mary has promised to try out the Navi Lens as well and report back to the
meeting.
Well done Tom
Looking to hearing more about Navi Lens from TOM.
Mary has problems in moving from www.audible.co.uk
<http://www.audible.co.uk> to www.audible.com <http://www.audible.com>
Bert suggested that she go to www.audible.co.uk <http://www.audible.co.uk> ,
and click the share button at the bottom right hand side of the page, and
Select to share to the home screen.
Then do the same for www.audible.com <http://www.audible.com> , and share
this again to your Home screen.
Then its possible to alt + tab between both sites.
This should be done on Safari on the iPhone. . That share button is found on
the bottom right hand side of the safari page.
Michael Brown brought up the thorny problem of accessible electric reading
meters.
It is true that under the Disability acts , it is of course that such
meters should be available to all visually impaired people, but in Britain,
they found problems with the meters.
Here we are looking for a meter which is fully accessible to vip's and works
well. No such meter has been found yet, so visually impaired will have to
wait or bring a case to have such things found and implemented.
Paudi told us of a company here in Ireland rather like Amazon, called Frugo
. It seems that they sell everything like Amazon, but are very good value as
well.
Go to www.frugo .ie <http://www.frugo%20.ie> .
Cearbhall told us of a recent pub crawl in Bandon, Cork.
This on further examination turned out to be a visit to Shandon, Cearbhall
had a senior moment.
They could not find the pub they wanted as the maps used by sound scape
were very old. They
Persisted and did find the pub, and had several glasses of Beamish.
Regards
Paul
