Original posting from Data Force by Trans Perfect

Data Force by Trans Perfect is looking for American Sign Language (ASL) and Black American Sign Language (BASL) signers across the United States to participate in a paid remote research project.

The goal of this project is to help make technology more accessible for everyone and promote greater inclusion of Deaf and signing communities in the development of future technologies.

We believe that projects involving ASL, BASL, and the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities should include meaningful representation from the communities themselves. Our project team includes Deaf and Hard of Hearing professionals who are directly involved in the administration and development of the project.

Their perspectives help us make informed decisions, advocate for the interests of the community, and ensure that accessibility, cultural considerations, and participant experience are represented throughout the project.

Participants will record approximately 1,000 short ASL/BASL videos from home, including phrases, numbers, finger spelling sequences, and conversational prompts.

Each recording is approximately 10 seconds long. Completing the full set is expected to take approximately 10 hours in total.

The project can be completed remotely from home using a compatible Apple device.

$700 USD for completing the project according to the study guidelines.

This is a project-based opportunity and not a full-time employment position.

• Be 18 years of age or older
• Be fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and/or Black American Sign Language (BASL)
• Currently reside in the United States, excluding Texas, Illinois, and Washington
• Be able to understand written English instructions
• Have a suitable environment at home for recording

Have access to a compatible Apple device:

• Mac Book with M1 chip or newer
• iMac with M1 chip or newer

Your contribution will help support the development of technologies that better recognize and represent ASL, BASL, and diverse signing communities.

You’ll participate entirely from home, complete the recordings on your own schedule according to the project instructions, and receive $700 USD upon successful completion of the project according to the study guidelines.
