Studies and Pilot Projects
Our ongoing commitment to development
As part of our ongoing commitment to the development of innovative, useful software and resources, we will, from time to time be conducting studies and pilot projects to ensure we get your invaluable feedback.
This provides an opportunity for you to evaluate and test our products within your environment with the support of our highly experienced staff.
We also welcome your thoughts as a delegate when participating in new training initiatives that we pilot prior to launch.
Interested? Please register with us supplying your name, area of interest and contact details and we will discuss each pilot project in more detail with you. info@EarlBright.com
MyDocStore
MyDocStore is an innovative concept addressing the missing link in creating and transferring accessible files between platforms. MyDocStore aims to make it quick and easy to transfer files between devices whilst simultaneously converting them into the user's preferred format - whether text, audio or a combination of both. This service will not only benefit learners who experience difficulties with reading due to a disability such as dyslexia or a visual impairment, but also those who want to read documents and content when on the move.
Currently in the proof of concept phase, MyDocStore is being developed by a consortium of organisations, led by iansyst ltd, who are working alongside the Electronics and Computer Science department at Southampton University and Raspberry Software Ltd to develop the proposal, which is being funded by the SBRI Plain Sailing Competition. The SBRI project is sponsored by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) and the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and managed by JISC TechDis, a leading UK advisory service on technology and inclusion. The project represents a phase one of a Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) programme, which encourages technology solutions to specific public sector needs. A broad range of companies are involved in competitions that result in development contracts.
