Tools Working Group Update

The DIAGRAM Tools Working Group met on October 8, 2014 for a special presentation by Fred Esch (Accessibility, Watson Innovations AARB Complex Visualization Working Group Chair) and Tom Babinski (IBM Human Ability and Accessibility Center) who demonstrated RAVE, a charting component that produces accessible charts.  The presentation was recorded.
