What Wong describes is almost a textbook definition of inclusive design, or bringing in people who are considered edge users of a product to spearhead design and development. What’s tough in your life? How do we solve that?’ It’s designing with, not designing for.” It’s more like, ‘You have a different take on the world, a different experience. “You start with one person, don’t even try to solve their problem, but get with them, design with them,” Wong explains. The lab has since dubbed this wider initiative Start with One. We brought her in, said let’s talk about the community, and workshopped things,” says Robert Wong, VP of Google Creative Lab. The project was born out of Google’s Creative Lab, which invited KR Liu, an advocate for the deaf and hard of hearing, to the office. With Live Caption, a world of otherwise inaccessible content will be made available to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community. Similarly, podcasts are rarely transcribed, and personal videos that friends share via text never feature closed captioning. As a result, many videos aren’t captioned at all. Much like we’ve seen with Google’s music identification service (which identifies 70,000 songs) and Night Sight photography (which can basically see in the dark), the technology uses shrunk-down machine-learning algorithms to run right on your device.Įven though most every service allows creators to manually caption their videos, it can be laborious to do so. No data leaves your phone, and it can even work in Airplane Mode. Live Caption, it’s called, doesn’t use the cloud.
