Home Video solution – Panopto Capabilities Accessibility
A video only helps if everyone can actually use it
Captions that are added as an afterthought, no way to search what was said, no support for a second language – these are the things that quietly shut people out of video content. Panopto builds accessibility into the platform itself, not as a separate add-on step.
Viducon is the official Panopto partner in Denmark. We handle implementation, support and workshops in Danish for your organisation, from the first demo through to daily use.
Captions generated automatically, not added by hand
Every recording can be captioned automatically as part of publishing, instead of relying on someone to do it manually afterwards. That keeps captions consistent across a whole library rather than only existing on the videos someone remembered to prioritise.
Search works the way people actually look for things
Because Panopto indexes both spoken words and on-screen text, someone using a screen reader or relying on keyboard navigation can still search inside a video and jump to the right moment, instead of having to sit through the whole recording.
Built for learners with different needs, not just the average case
Adjustable playback speed, keyboard-accessible controls and screen reader compatibility mean a recording works whether someone processes information faster with audio, needs extra time, or relies on assistive technology to navigate the page.
Language shouldn't be the reason someone misses the content
Captions and translations can be generated across many languages without re-recording anything, which matters for organisations training or teaching people who don't all share a first language.
Access AI: finding answers, not just watching videos
Access AI lets people search across an entire video library in plain language and get pointed to the exact moment an answer appears, which is often faster and more accessible than browsing a list of recordings and guessing which one to open.
