[actf-dev] Cross Pollination UAAG / ACTF aiBrowser
|
Hi there,
I'm just trying to link up 2 communities -
The User Agent Working Group at http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/
and The Eclipse ACTF Project at http://www.eclipse.org/actf/
What's more, I wondered if the aiBrowser
http://www.eclipse.org/actf/downloads/tools/aiBrowser/index.php
Might prove to be a good UAAG technology demonstrator as it is open
source and free.
It already has a lot of the features we have been talking about, currently:
Support media ␣ Flash (swf v6-v9 (AS2)) ␣ Experimental: Windows Media
(wmv, etc.), RealMedia, QuickTime
• Media control functions ␣ Play / Stop / Pause ␣ Volume Down / Up ␣
Mute / Mute off
␣ Speed Up / Down ␣ Rewind / Forward
• Audio description ␣ Provide audio description by using TTS engine
(SAPI, ProTalker) ␣ Support simple XML format
␣ start time ␣ text
with an enhancement plan of:
Enable sharing of audio description scripts via networks ␣ provide
HTTP-based fetch mechanism
• Enable use of pre-generated audio descriptions (wav, mp3, etc.)
• Enable control of TTS parameters (voice gender, speed, pitch, stress,
etc.) for providing high-quality audio descriptions
␣ extend TTS control interface of ACTF ␣ provide adapters for existing
TTS engines/APIs (SSML, SAPI, etc.)
• Support extended audio description
• Support existing/coming formats for captions and audio descriptions ␣
design common interface ␣ provide ExtensionPoint to add adapters for
each format
Cheers
Si.
