CSUN Assistive Technology Conference Part 1

  • 11 months ago
Spring begins again! But as the snow melts and birds return to frigid Wisconsin, our pair of Assistive Technology Specialists embark upon a migration of their own. One which will take them far beyond the sunset in search of innovation. Their destination? CSUN 2023, an annual Assistive Technology conference held in California.

There were many assistive tech companies representing their new products and updates. Among them are: Morphic, Orbit Research, Patriot, Goodmaps, Orcam, AwareWolf Gear, and many more!

Having documented their experiences while “abroad” we will be bringing you up to speed on all the exciting news and intriguing tech over the next few weeks. Be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss Part 2! ( UPDATE Part 2 now available here: https://youtu.be/5a1BQu418LU )

Because of the rapid nature of the convention room floor, we didn't get to ask many questions in our whirlwind interviews, nor go as in-depth as we typically would in the demos. Not to worry, just post any questions you have in the comments below and we will do our best to answer. And be sure to check back later on as we will be producing stand-alone reviews and full demonstrations of the tech that people find intriguing.

Vision Forward's Tech Connect continues to bring you the information you need to make the most out of your devices. Our experts know there are many factors to consider, so if you have any follow up questions please post them in the comments and we will help you find the assistive tech that's best for you.
