Automatic Speech Recognition and Captions via Kaltura

Kaltura now offers an easy way to create closed captioning (CC) files. Aside from being required by law, CC technology can aid viewers with hearing impairments, certain learning disabilities, and non-native English viewers. It also makes your videos searchable, which makes them easier to find, reuse at later date, or use as a study aid. We will demonstrate the ASR caption tool, walk attendees through the editor, and show some of the benefits of captioning.

Presenter:

Drew MacGregor has been involved with online and streaming media since 1997 and with the University of Illinois since 1998.
