For several months, Nathan Romo, Tom Randall and I had been talking about creating a workshop where we introduced people to various items of adaptive technology.
As you all probably know most adaptive technology is pretty expensive. You often can't open your wallet for under $1,000. But we aimed to open ou wallets for less than that. We eventually came up with a price framework of $50 or less, $ 150 or less and over $150.
We didn't ever manage to create the talk for somewhere like our local libraries, but we did put the idea into practice for program 6 of 'Blindside Fresno' Adaptive Technology Giftts for the Blind and Visually Impaired.
We looked at a range of items varying in price from just a few dollars for a Liquid Level Alarm through Safe earphones that allow you to use your phone safely in traffic to hot air fryers and Talking Barcode Readers
