电视在视障人士的生活中发挥着重要作用,但他们在充分利用电视方面面临相当大的障碍。AUDETEL(音频描述电视)是一种通过在节目的自然间隙插入描述来增强视障人士电视效果的方法。本文报道了RNIB于1994年进行的AUDETEL田间试验的结果。它包括:100名视障人士的电视观看模式;他们在接触电视时遇到的困难;以及AUDETEL在消除这些障碍方面的影响。试验的结果表明,AUDETEL大大改善了人们获得电视的机会,使视力受损的人能够“观看”以前无法观看的节目,并改善了经常“观看”的节目。
Television plays an important role in the lives of visually impaired people yet they face considerable barriers to accessing it fully. AUDETEL (AUdio DEscribed TELevision) is a way of enhancing television for visually impaired people by inserting descriptions in the natural gaps in a programme. This article reports on the results of a field trial of AUDETEL conducted by RNIB in 1994. It covers: the television viewing patterns of a sample of 100 visually impaired people; what they find difficult in accessing television; and the impact of AUDETEL in removing these barriers. The results of the trial indicate that AUDETEL goes a long way to improving access to television by enabling visually impaired people to "watch" programmes which had previously been inaccessible and to enhance those which are "watched" regularly.
