Shawn Keen discusses Athina AD, an AI-powered audio description platform for blind and low-vision users.

Users can upload a video or submit a supported video link, such as YouTube, and Athina AD generates both a written and spoken description of what is happening visually in the video.   During the presentation, Shawn will explain what Athina AD is, why audio description matters, how it can help blind users access more video content, and he’ll do a simple live demo of the current system.
