Fall 2019: Cool and Useful Devices and Apps for Greater Independence

Presented by: Julie Rock, Cynthia Woods, and Matthew Bullis
A fun look at what is new. We will demonstrate devices and SMART phone apps that make living less challenging for those who are BVI. The presenters have almost a decade of experience instructing to adults and a lifetime of conquering the challenges with a visual impairment or blindness to share. There will be discussion of devices and apps which may be familiar (PenFriend and Seeing ai) and what’s new on the scene (Orbit braille display and EYE-D app). There will also be discussion of new accessibility features available in the latest IOS13 operating system. Some hands on with devices and exploration of apps will be available
