Neuralink 임상시험의 첫 여성 참가자 Audrey가 사고로 마비된 뒤, 뇌-컴퓨터 인터페이스를 통해 다시 마음으로 그림을 그리고 있다는 사례를 소개. BCI 기술이 실제 재활·보조공학 영역에서 보여주는 가능성을 강조하는 내용이다.

Tomorrow I'm sitting down with Jennifer Hendrix, Founder and CEO of GoVivid Co., for The Tony Gebhard Show.

GoVivid is building an assistive ecosystem for blind and low vision folks: GV Discover (AI awareness app), DirectMe (mobility platform, under FDA review), Seymour (cane-mounted sensor), and Iris (head tracker for 3D spatial audio).

The part that earned my respect: it's designed to enhance the white cane, not replace it.

We're talking design, access, affordability, and what real independence looks like. Episode dropping soon.

Stay groovy. Lots of love.

👋 I'm Lanie, a blind developer pursuing CS and doing accessibility testing after being denied a state hardware loan. I'm raising funds for a new accessible workstation and Mantis Q40 Braille display so I can keep working and studying.

My computer isn't just a machine—it's my communication aid, my regulation tool, and my entire workspace. If you can spare a few dollars or boost this post, it means the world.

A bright blue button, designed for paws not hands, lets service dogs control appliances from up to 40 meters away.

At £80, the Dogosophy Button is more than a gadget — it’s independence made tangible.

Accessibility #AssistiveTech

Well, I just made this for myself, using cursor with the model selection left on auto.
Pretty damn good if I do say so myself.
It feels nice to no longer be stuck when someone else can't help, or won't help make something. Where someone may criticise me because I’m not submitting patches. Where someone might criticise me because I am unable to learn code and they'd rather think I'm a liar when I say so.
I don't need to do any of this with AI. I can make things, finally, without being judged (other than by irrational AI haters, that is).

Reaching out to my #blind #Ohio #AssistiveTech #professionals: Does anyone know of any Center's for the Blind near Fairfield, Hamilton, or Fairfield Township?

My grandma called me yesterday and let me know she ran into a woman whose mom has Macular Degeneration, she would like help setting up her Meta Smart Glasses and the only center I remember is Cleveland Sight Center LOL.

Unfortunately, my company does not usually see clients out-of-state.

Did you know Perspective Transcribe is fully accessible for everyone?

All features are designed to work accessibly, including VoiceOver workflows.

Accessibility is not a bonus feature. It is part of the app from the start.
