Inventor, Creators, Hackers, Tinkers and Change Makers – Join us for an exciting 48 hr Access Makeathon in Vancouver on January 27 – 29, 2017. Come build an open source assistive technology that directly address the needs of people with disability.
For the last days of 2016, the LipSync team is working hard to 鈥渇reeze鈥 the design ahead of the Access Makeathon on January 27th.
There鈥檚 one thing, though, that we鈥檙e still trying to nail down 鈥 the joystick.
In partnership with Rick Hansen Foundation, SFU鈥檚 School of Interactive Arts and Technology, TechSoup NetSquared, Tom Global, UBC Women in Engineering, and UBC Young Women in Engineering and Science, we are organizing a 48 hour event called the Access Makeathon from January 27th to 29th, 2017.
Last week, we welcomed two new, albeit temporary, members to our team 鈥 Angela and Kelly. For the week, we had two high school students come and actually make some LipSyncs.
We have one LipSync out the door. After helping us with another round of testing, Don Danbrook took a LipSync home, and became the very first recipient of a LipSync device.
