Hi, Tom
Here is the link to the Beulr website if you require additional information. It is not a captioning program. My understanding likens it to a secretary. I did receive an update from Zoom support which I corrected my original post. -- Alan Katsura akatsura@... Moderator HLAA Tech Group

sorry - I had an excellent experience Google Meet. I had not used it for a couple of years. I used to try to get peopleto use it, but people were mostly fixed on Zoom. Don't know why. When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, I used everything you gave me. Erma Bombeck

Margaret - when you say "It is wildly superior interface. Captions are excellent." are you refering to Google Mets as opposed to Zoom? Thanks to you both!

I am presently in a Google Meet online call as I type. It is wildly superior interface. Captions are excellent. Invitation process was easy-peasy.

Beulr and other AI note taking programs and Zoom
#zoom
Zoom users -
I experienced this for the first time the other day. This is informational only and does NOT necessarily pose a threat to your meeting. You may have a registrant to your meeting ask for permission to use an AI bot to take the meeting notes. In this case, the program is Beulr, but I am sure there are other programs that work similarly. Zoom is aware of Beulr and similar programs. Beulr was on Shark Tank. I may try it to see how it works. I want to let others know what to expect if they experience a similar program asking for access to the meeting.
UPDATE: Clarification from Zoom - the AI bot will exit the meeting with the attendee. Alan Katsura akatsura@... Moderator HLAA Tech Group

Thank you for the information. I was hoping to learn hardware and software details for setting up and managing hybrid meetings. I guess I didn't miss much Thank you again. Denise

Hi Denise
Zoom is supposed to send a link to the video to attendees. I will share it here. I did not find the type of information I was looking for. That is not to say the webinar did not contain helpful info. It dealt with presenting the hybrid meeting and not the hardware and software setup. The problem in attacking hybrid setups so much depends on the equipment the facility has and what you have access to. You want to try to avoid purchasing any equipment until you are sure about going forward with hybrid meetings. Captioning adds a dimension that articles do not cover. I have found this YouTube channel helpful. -- Alan Katsura akatsura@... Moderator HLAA Tech Group

Re: Zoom Chat New Admin email received today
#zoom
Hi Jaynie
I updated to version 5.10.0. I received the update message when I logged into my admin section. I think Zoom rearranged parts of the administration section of the menu. I am unaware of any changes to the meeting settings. Live streaming is now available on YouTube and Twitch. Any reference to Zoom Chat does not affect our meetings. Zoom Chat is an additional feature marketed by Zoom - similar to a video call. It has nothing to do with the chat feature in Zoom Meetings. You can review the latest update log. -- Alan Katsura akatsura@... Moderator HLAA Tech Group

Great article. I will share this with my hearing loss group.

One quick question about looping a cab. . . I assume there is a microphone on the dash and copper wiring in the back seat of the vehicle? Jean Draths

Hearing Loops and Transportation Article
Hi All - There have been shorter pieces elsewhere but the Jan/Feb issue of TR News, the transportation industry magazine of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, has a new and much more detailed article of mine on the growing presence of hearing loops in the transportation industry.
For anyone who might find the article helpful in their advocacy, the magazine was delayed and is still at the printer but the article is posted at my website (www.sofnabq.com).
The endorsement of hearing loop technology by Amtrak, the Port Authority of NY and NJ and other entities bodes well for the continued growth in the availability of hearing loops for travelers.

Re: HAT in trial martial arts class?
I did write and request a Roger Pen to be added to the Lending Library...and I included Dr. Cliff's video on the Roger Pen. I got such a nice reply that I need to share it with you all! Here is Vance's reply! I will pass this info on to our lending libraries throughout the US.

Re: HAT in trial martial arts class?
Thanks Mary for the suggestion. I just requested that our Lending Library purchase a Roger Pen, for the Washington State program...as they also do not offer the Roger Pen for lending...and I did mention that Florida State had one (smile). Thanks for the suggestion!
I had purchased one and agree with Dr. Cliff Olson, "Best Hearing Accessary Ever" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gogi4sqzThg&t=11s Carolyn J. Odio

Re: HAT in trial martial arts class?
That is definitely doable. The equipment that they have for people with hearing loss seems to either be "old" technology (ie ubi-duo) or it is technology designed for situations that do not require the person to move around (ie.Pocket talker and Conversor Pro). The thing is that we (hard of hearing) people need to contact them (as Mary suggested) and point out what devices people with hearing loss can actually use in their daily life. Find out how they are funded and do not take No for an answer. Possible approach to getting new equipment for your local ACT demonstration Center. You may want to get a guest speaker come to speak to your group on grassroots organizing/lobbying. Make initial contact with the demonstration center in your area Find out if they have funding and how they are funded and how they decide what equipment to purchase Ask them to send you a list of all the equipment that would help people with hearing loss Decide on two or three pieces of equipment you would suggest for purchase. Plan on follow up visits to see if they really followed through. If they don't, then find out who the next higher person is to contact OR contact your local legislative rep. (if necessary). I hope you are successful in getting what you need for your class. regards, Carolyn McMahon "You may never know what results come of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results."

Re: HAT in trial martial arts class?
Hello Debbie and All,
What a great resource this group is!
Wonderful ideas-
WATAP has the Washington state technology contract. https://watap.org/
Please check back for future updates
and do not hesitate to contact us via 800-214-8731or watap@....
When I founded Loop Seattle, I saw they did not
offer much in the way of hearing technology. I was told they do not receive many requests for hearing technology demonstrations. At my request, they upgraded their selection and included a few counter hearing loops. All this to say, I think it’s worth a call
because they just might add Roger pens to the mix.
Also, our local HSDC will set up a hearing loop
for meetings. I’m not sure the martial arts class would qualify or that this type of loop would be appropriate for this setting. However, HSDC does offer other assistive technology and they might be willing to let you try a Roger pen.
Also HSDC offers advocacy services and they may
be willing to do a zoom call with you and your instructors. https://www.hsdc.org/
