The Promise Of Glide & More Feedback

Today on the show Steven Scott and Shaun Preece discuss the Glide device, a new assistive technology aimed at enhancing mobility for blind users. They explore the device's potential as a replacement for traditional mobility aids like guide dogs and white canes, while also addressing community feedback and the importance of user experiences. The conversation delves into the integration of AI in assistive technologies, the cost implications of the Glide device, and the overall excitement and skepticism surrounding its adoption. They also touch on social media's impact on self-perception, celebrate small victories in daily life, and engage with listener feedback on accessibility and assistive technology.Get in touch with Double Tap by emailing us [email protected] or by call 1-877-803-4567 and leave us a voicemail.
