What is remote CART captioning?

Remote CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) captioning is a service where a trained captioner listens to spoken content, such as lectures, meetings, or live events, and converts the speech into real-time text. This text is streamed online for clients, often individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, to read simultaneously. Remote CART captioners typically work from home, connecting to events via secure internet platforms. This service ensures accessibility and inclusion by providing immediate written communication for those who need it.
