What’s New. - Minor fixes and stability improvements. Ratings and Reviews. Improved driver issue response.. map no go. I do not like new map. it does not connect to my blue tooth and even turned off, I can’t get sound unless I turn the car all the way off. it was great before. however, it might mostly be from the iOS update. But I could deal with that if the map automatically centered so I could glance at the screen to see where I’m at. and it’s more difficult to locate customers houses and probably fifty percent of the houses and apts, you cannot see the numbers. I had to manually put in addresses into my google maps. it’s still easier to follow without sound. Having to re center the dasher map constantly is like an accident waiting to happen. Maybe there is an advantage to that that I don’t see yet? Also, customers have reported that they’ve tried to edit their info and messages to us, but it doesn’t work . their changes don’t update. It would be super helpful if we had name of shopping center, office, apt complex, neighborhood where those stand out. And if someone lives in a house with no or difficult to see house numbers. some other visual indication might be helpful. like ‘white house w shutters and two lights at door’ or something. Half the houses are easy and straightforward. but some are not clear on map and when I can’t see addresses, I can’t confirm. I’ve had several close calls of dropping at wrong location. These details could help circumvent problems. Dasher Michelle Walker. I love doing deliveries! Meeting new people and building a network with the merchants. I have established a few regulars which makes this that much more enjoyable. My only thing is that there seems to be too many drivers out at the same time on certain nights and even during the days lately. Makes it hard to commit full time especially in a small town. I like to stay busy and for the last two weeks I am not busy at all. I can schedule a seven or eight hour shift and actually only work maybe 3 hours. Too much down time. I love being part of a platform where I decide what works for me and change it up by doing deliveries when I go to my moms in Colorado. Being able to work in different cities around the United States is awesome ! There aren’t too many platforms which allow this, I think it is great though because a dasher can keep their ratings high and the app greasy and not lose status as a top dasher if they so choose or they can take vacay! So many great options driving for Doordash but working for me by me! I’m going to give full time devotion here in a couple weeks I’m praying to be able to quit the working for someone else and be happy doing what I am loving more everyday! Best to you all out there doing the deal. Fun but app could be a bit better for dashers. I like the extra $ and it’s a decent gig but I feel that door dash shouldn’t allow the customer to do a no tip. I get them quite often from the same customers and I’m always on time or earlier. Make sure they have extra sauces. Napkins. Etc and I’m always polite and still get nothing from it. Dashers drive their own personal cars to make sure the customer gets their food and we use our own gas to make it happen. 3$ a trip isn’t worth delivering to people ordering 40-60$ of food and we have to go the extra mile for nothing basically. I feel that door dash can implement something on if you order either a lot of food and or a high price amount then the customer is required to tip. Also regarding if a store is indefinitely closed. They should make it easier to know what button to click to say you can’t do the order and not be docked acceptance because it not being your fault. If you click stores closed it should prompt you to say is it closed or closed indefinitely and then take you to the proper area if it’s indefinitely.

  • A Multilingual Keyboard and Mouse Interface for Motor-Impaired Users
    SUITEDasher – A Multilingual Keyboard and Mouse Interface for Motor-Impaired Users David Lyle and Bill Manaris Computer Science Department, College of Charleston 66 George Street, Charleston, SC 29424, USA [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This paper presents the design of SUITEDasher – an open-source, multilingual speech user interface for motor- impaired users. SUITEDasher’s architecture is based on SUITEKeys – a speech user interface for manipulating a speech keyboard and mouse. SUITEDasher has three main design objectives: (a) to improve on the usability of its predecessor; (b) to provide for multilingual access; and (c) to be platform independent. To achieve these objectives, SUITEDasher employs a minimal graphical user interface, and incorporates a trigram-based probabilistic model from Dasher – a text-entry interface driven by pointing gestures. Multilingual access is achieved through a set of syntactic, lexical, and (potentially) phonetic models that may be loaded dynamically at run time. Finally, SUITEDasher is being implemented in Java as a cross-platform (Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux) application. While refining the design, we have developed several prototypes, the latest of which has been implemented in Visual Basic and C++ on the Windows platform. Preliminary usability results indicate that, in terms of typing speed, SUITEDasher appears to be 30% faster than its predecessor, and as fast as Dasher. Keywords: Universal access, motor impairments, speech user interfaces, listening keyboard, usability evaluation. 1 Introduction Several studies have been performed exploring the effectiveness of speech as an alternative to the physical keyboard for alphanumeric data entry. Murray et al. (1983) found that, in the context of controlling cursor movement, keyboard input is twice as fast and more preferred by users compared to speech.

  • Dasher Manual
    Dasher Manual David J.C. MacKay January 25, 2006 — Draft 1.1 The first part of this manual assumes you are steering Dasher with a mouse, in order to write in English. Dasher also works in over a hundred other languages. Please see the Dasher Special Needs Guide for information about alternatives to mouse-steering. 1 Dasher Dasher is an information-efficient text-entry interface, driven by natural continuous pointing gestures. Dasher is a competitive text-entry system wherever a full-size keyboard cannot be used - for example, • on a palmtop computer; • on a wearable computer; • when operating a computer one-handed, by joystick, touchscreen, trackball, or mouse; • when operating a computer with zero hands (i.e., by head-mouse or by eyetracker). The eyetracking version of Dasher allows an experienced user to write text as fast as normal handwriting - 29 words per minute; using a mouse, experienced users can write at 39 words per minute. Dasher can be used to write efficiently in any language. Dasher is fast and fun to learn. (See what users round the world say, in section 8.) Dasher is free software. It’s distributed under the same license as GNU/Linux, the GPL. 1.1 How does Dasher work? Dasher is like an arcade game: ‘Attack of the killer alphabets’, perhaps. Financial Times, 5th February 2002 Dasher is a zooming interface. You point where you want to go, and the display zooms in wherever you point. The world into which you are zooming is painted with letters, so that any point you zoom in on corresponds to a piece of text.

SpeeG: A Speech- and Gesture-based Text Input Device Page | 4 Abstract Nowadays, the input of text on TV set-top boxes or game consoles is often restricted and an unpleasant experience. Due to the limited space on a TV remote control, users are required to press the same button multiple times before the intended character is selected. Likewise, on game consoles, such as the Wii or Xbox, users select single characters from a virtual on-screen keyboard, which is also a very inefficient way of entering text. Speech recognition input is recognised to be the holy grail of efficient text-input for many years. However, after numerous attempts in academia and industry, we are still not close to 100% recognition rates. Additionally, a speech recogniser typically enforces users to initiate a user-specific training session. The goal of this thesis was to overcome both of these issues.
