@merrierm @rupeshmalpani @MSFTResearch And even beyond #a11y, it's important to think about access to the hardware and infrastructure. These technologies are often expensive, need dedicated space, and may rely on fast broadband. There's interesting research into how we make this more inclusive.

@rupeshmalpani @MSFTResearch Oh, I think we are using the word "access" in different ways. I think the discussion on this current thread is using it to refer to access by people with disabilities, as opposed to just generic "access" of data.

Question 4: How can researchers increase access to inclusive Mixed Reality & Telepresence? #ChatWithMSFTResearch

@MSFTResearch One huge opportunity we have with the lockdown is the massive number of people having to live in telepresence. There are now so many people working and playing online now that natural experiments are everywhere!

Question 3: What kinds of studies and techniques should researchers consider while working remotely? #ChatWithMSFTResearch

@MSFTResearch As @Eyal_Ofek notes, rendering to more sense than just hte visual is very exciting right now. Beyond haptics there's also some great work in using spatial audio. Microsoft's Soundscape is a great example of the power of this in AR. microsoft.com/en-us/research…

Question 1: What are the current trends at the intersection of HCI and Mixed Reality & Telepresence? #ChatWithMSFTResearch

@MSFTResearch Hi! I'm Ed Cutrell and I'm part of the Ability Team at Microsoft Research. I'm really interested in how to make #MixedReality (AR, VR, xR) useful, usable and accessible for people with disabilities. aka.microsoft.com/cutrell

Welcome to a #ChatWithMSFTResearch on Mixed Reality & Telepresence. Say hello and introduce your work. Over the next hour, we'll tweet the following questions. You're invited to share insights and pose more questions in each thread. #CHI2020 papers: aka.ms/ChatHCI

In a webinar with Dr. @EdCutrell and @DrDannaG, discover some of the challenges facing computer vision researchers as they improve AI technologies for people who are blind or low vision. See how real use cases can lead to meaningful tech. Sign up now: aka.ms/AA7tg8k

@roboticwrestler @ACM_CSCW OMG! THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING DEMO I HAVE EVER SEEN! YOU JUST BLEW MY TINY LITTLE MIND! WOW!

@shaddih I *know*. Creepy, ain't it?

@chrisparnin @asbruckman so efficiency is much better for fixed.

@chrisparnin @asbruckman in our case, survey was 1 Q, so spread ~= completion.

@Alan_yn_Aber Also, Word for Mac sux significantly harder than Word for Windows.

@Alan_yn_Aber There's a whole set of Word voodoo. For my papers I put any non-text object in textboxes; can control much better.

@DelightfulApps @mcphoo Awesome! :-)

@mcphoo Pynchon isn't everyone's cuppa, but if he hits your spot, it'll blow you away.

@mcphoo For Pynchon, *The Crying of Lot 49*. Short tour de force. If you dig that, move on to *Gravity's Rainbow*

@mcphoo For Murakami, start with *Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World* or *The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle*.
