Speech to Text Service
At New Wine Cymru a Speech to Text service is provided.
Speech to Text is a '"live subtitling" type service for
those who are hearing impaired, and indeed is very
useful to anyone who can read English. It is provided
via a stenography machine which enables the writer to
type words at a time instead of letters at a time, where
speeds of up to 240 words per minute can be achieved.
The words are projected onto a screen for everyone to
read. This screen is situated at the front of the hall
to enable access for anyone who needs it.
In addition to this service being provided live,
transcripts of seminars can be saved and these can be
sold on. The price for the whole week's transcripts are
15, or a set of morning or evening transcripts for 8,
Single Seminars 2.50. Transcripts can be e-mailed,
saved on CD or transferred to a USB pen drive at the
conference. For those who have no access to computers,
transcripts can be printed at a cost of 10p per A4 sheet
at the Conference.
All Bible Studies in the Main Hall will be subtitled,
however only certain seminars will be covered unless
specifically requested.
If you didn't manage to order last year's transcripts
and would like a copy, please e-mail us with your
request.
