Contributors will record 1,000 short ASL or BASL videos based on prompts at home, ensuring correct setup and timely uploads.
Project Description

Participants will record short, voice-assistant-style commands (everyday phrases, common requests, conversational prompts) to help AI systems better understand signed requests.
This work directly supports more inclusive technology for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing users. Each participant will complete 1,000 short videos, most around 10 seconds or less, recorded at home on an Apple device.

- Upload videos and participate in onboarding and periodic check-ins
- Work independently while meeting project timelines
Requirements
- Fluent in ASL or BASL, or at least 2 semesters of college ASL
- Use ASL or BASL daily
- Minimum proficiency in reading and writing English
- Access to an Apple device (iPhone, iPad, MacBook, or iMac)
- Reliable internet connection
- Comfortable using device/camera and following step-by-step instructions
- Additional tools/software may be provided if needed (e.g., MacOS foot pedals for hands-free recording)
