We present our attempt to develop a technology platform that uses synthesized speech for providing audio descriptions. It allows adding audio descriptions to online videos, which currently have minimal audio descriptions, at minimal cost without recording the narrations. This report describes experiments we conducted with visually impaired participants to assess the quality of the synthesized audio descriptions. We discuss the implications of the experiments for making audio descriptions for online videos as well as for designing audio description editors, players, and data formats. |
