AIRA
AIRA is a service that provides instant, visual access to the surrounding environment for people who are visually impaired.
AIRA as a service on campus was initially brought to UWM with the financial support of the Wisconsin Industry for the Blind and Visually Impaired and is now funded and sponsored by the UWM Accessibility Resource Center. UWM is the first and only university in Wisconsin to provide AIRA, which is accessible for free to registered UWM users, as well as anyone from outside of UWM, on all UWM campuses and affiliated buildings.
Registered UWM users have free access to AIRA wherever they go, not just on campus.
For more information about AIRA, how to be added as a registered UWM user, or training on how to use the service, please contact Christi Craig, Assistive Technology Coordinator, ccraig@uwm.edu.
