Live Captioning & Real-Time Transcription

Live captioning and CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) is the instantaneous translation of the spoken word.

Text is transmitted within seconds of the spoken word. This service can be provided on site as well as remotely. In a classroom situation, the captioner is present in the room with the student. The lecturer or the professor is speaking, and the text is displayed for the student to view. Real time captioning and CART can be provided for meetings, classes, training sessions, and special events

Remote captioning is the same, except that the caption provider is in a remote location and receives audio through the use of a telephone or internet connection platform.

Audio Description, also known as Descriptive Audio or Video Description, narrates the relevant visual information contained in a video and is an accommodation for blind and low-vision viewers. These descriptions fit into natural pauses in the video’s audio track to provide context, to clarify speakers, and to articulate visual elements that are critical to gain a comprehensive understanding of the video.

What is the difference between closed captioning and live captioning?

Closed captioning is very detailed and time-coded, so that the correct text appears at the proper time while you’re watching a video, tv, or movie or listening to a piece of audio. Live captions are a real-time process, done as the the event is happening. Nothing is predetermined and the transcription is happening live.

When to use live captions?

As more videos and events are live streamed, live captions should be considered. Captions produced in real-time while the video is happening help viewers to participate more effectively while remote or in environments where the sound can’t be played out loud. Captions also help to deliver accessibility to audiences who rely on them to consume your content and participate in your events. Live captions reinforce the content being shared verbally for greater audience readability.
