Presenting at UC Berkeley Human Rights Center
I’m at the UC Berkeley Human Rights Center “The Soul of the New Machine” conference. We have teamed with Human Rights Watch to present a submission to their Mobility Challenge. We were thrilled to make it to the top ten finalists and have the next two days to make our case to the judges.
I’ll let you know how we do.

Mobility? that’s interesting. Did you develop the braille labeled modules concept further? are we talking using the module to assist the blind with getting around? (talking GPS, Sonar, Laser range finder?)

We developed the braille as part of the design language to indicate inclusion – everyone should have the ability to innovate with hardware. And yes you can use BUG to build gadgets for the blind!
