Watch the April 19th recording below:
Join us for this special presentation about the
IDATA Project (Innovators Developing Accessible Tools in Astronomy)
which aims to support the learning and participation of people who are blind, visually impaired, and sighted in the field of astronomy.
The project’s main product, now called AfterGlow Access, is a sonification tool—a software that produces auditory, rather than visual, representations of data. Its mission is to allow the blind and sighted alike to explore the images captured by space telescopes via sound.
Speaker: Timothy Spuck,
Director of Education and Public Engagement at Associated Universities Inc and AWB Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Stay tuned for details
