ASR instantly recognized the word spoken and provides machine-based captions. Captioning is the process that converts the audio content of a video into text captions. Videos are captioned to make the content more accessible and available for users who are deaf and hard of hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are auto captions adequate for video accommodation requests in the classroom?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Auto captioning does not meet the standard for providing a reasonable accommodation, nor does it provide the level of accuracy required for public facing videos.
