David Tseng, Google’s Technical Lead for Chrome OS accessibility, says as a young person, “My “pen and paper” consisted of digital braille displays. My textbooks and exams came in digital formats… My interactions with computers meant listening to computerized text-to-speech. Looking back, all of this nudged me to wonder how these crucial pieces of my daily life worked, and led me to study them in college and beyond.” Now, he works to develop new Chromebook features like ChromeVox and Dictation and improve the Automatic Clicks. A blind tech engineer’s story.
