The indoor wayfinding app for disabilities, developed by Okeenea, is a groundbreaking solution that aims to create a barrier-free environment for people with disabilities. This inclusive indoor wayfinding app is designed to assist individuals with disabilities in navigating complex indoor environments such as universities, campuses, airports, and metro stations.Indoor wayfinding app for disabilitiesThe app addresses a common issue with traditional wayfinding apps, which can be inaccessible or difficult to use for individuals with disabilities. By offering a user-friendly interface and customizable options, the app aims to make indoor navigation more intuitive and efficient for all users, not just those with disabilities. This inclusive design approach ensures that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can benefit from the app's features and improve their overall experience in indoor spaces.The app utilizes Bluetooth beacons and a sophisticated algorithm for triangulation, providing users with an impressive level of accuracy of around 1 to 1.5 meters. This level of precision is essential for guiding individuals with disabilities, such as blind or visually impaired individuals, to their desired destinations within indoor spaces. Unlike GPS, which does not work indoors, the app's use of Bluetooth beacons allows for precise indoor navigation, making it a valuable tool for those who struggle with orientation in complex environments.Expanding accessibility through technologyThe app's user-centric design approach is evident in its focus on providing voice instructions to users, allowing them to simply follow the guidance provided by the app to reach their destination. This simplicity and ease of use make the app accessible to a wide range of individuals with disabilities, including those with cognitive limitations or mobility impairments.In addition to its practical applications for individuals with disabilities, the indoor wayfinding app has broader implications for improving accessibility and inclusivity in indoor spaces. By empowering individuals with disabilities to navigate indoor environments independently, the app promotes greater independence and autonomy for these individuals, allowing them to participate more fully in everyday activities and experiences.The app's scalability and affordability are also notable features. It has already been implemented in large venues like the Venetian. The quick and cost-effective process of delivering the service makes it accessible to a wide range of venues and organizations, ensuring that more people can benefit from the app's capabilities.The journey of OkeeneaThe development of this indoor wayfinding app was not without its challenges. The team at Okeenea worked tirelessly for five years to perfect the technology and ensure that it could effectively guide a blind person in a metro station to find a door. Through a combination of Bluetooth beacons, accelerometers, gyroscopes, and other sensors in mobile phones, the app can provide users with accurate directions and instructions for navigating indoor spaces.Conclusion: Technology that helps improve accessibility of large venuesIn conclusion, the inclusive wayfinding app developed by Okeenea represents a significant advancement in accessibility technology. By prioritizing user needs, offering customizable options, and ensuring affordability and scalability, the app has the potential to revolutionize indoor navigation for individuals with disabilities and promote greater inclusivity in society. As technology continues to evolve, innovative solutions like this app will play a crucial role in creating more accessible and inclusive environments for all individuals.Interview by Scott Ertz of F5 Live: Refreshing Technology.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

Sometimes it's nice to just have a space to “exist” – to laugh and let go and feel light. I've mentioned third places in other episodes, and today, I dive deep into this concept – what they are, their decline, and ideas for bringing them back.The “third place” was coined by sociologist Ray Oldenburg and refers to the place people spend their time after their “first place” (home) and their “second place” (work). They're meant to be community hubs – places where people can exchange ideas, build relationships, and have a good time.Here, I talk about the history of the third place and their decline in the past half century. So if you're out there feeling like a bad friend for not calling people back or because you don't know your neighbors, give yourself some grace – it's a little more difficult than it once was.I'm a total nerd about this topic, and this will be the first in many episodes talking about third places, from the laws and policy decisions that affect them, to how they might look in the future.In this episode you'll hear about:What a third places is by Oldenburg's definition and examples – libraries, parks, museums, social services, low-cost businessesHow third places cultivate a sense of belonging and trust – plus, the populations that especially benefit from them: teens, the elderly, and people with disabilitiesThe history of third places, from the 1800s through post World War II and the “American Dream” – plus, third place “replacements,” i.e., places where you pay to gain entryHow some modern day third places are more focused on self than the community (for example, getting in better shape, leaning into your hobby, etc.)Ideas to bring third places back, from using a third place (going to the park, the library, or the neighborhood cafe) to following people who are talking about thisResources & LinksLike what you hear?

GiveWell is one of the world's best-known charity evaluators, with the goal of "searching for the charities that save or improve lives the most per dollar." It mostly recommends projects that help the world's poorest people avoid easily prevented diseases, like intestinal worms or vitamin A deficiency.But should GiveWell, as some critics argue, take a totally different approach to its search, focusing instead on directly increasing subjective wellbeing, or alternatively, raising economic growth?Today's guest — cofounder and CEO of GiveWell, Elie Hassenfeld — is proud of how much GiveWell has grown in the last five years. Its 'money moved' has quadrupled to around $600 million a year.Its research team has also more than doubled, enabling them to investigate a far broader range of interventions that could plausibly help people an enormous amount for each dollar spent. That work has led GiveWell to support dozens of new organisations, such as Kangaroo Mother Care, MiracleFeet, and Dispensers for Safe Water.But some other researchers focused on figuring out the best ways to help the world's poorest people say GiveWell shouldn't just do more of the same thing, but rather ought to look at the problem differently.Links to learn more, summary and full transcript.Currently, GiveWell uses a range of metrics to track the impact of the organisations it considers recommending — such as 'lives saved,' 'household incomes doubled,' and for health improvements, the 'quality-adjusted life year.' The Happier Lives Institute (HLI) has argued that instead, GiveWell should try to cash out the impact of all interventions in terms of improvements in subjective wellbeing. This philosophy has led HLI to be more sceptical of interventions that have been demonstrated to improve health, but whose impact on wellbeing has not been measured, and to give a high priority to improving lives relative to extending them.An alternative high-level critique is that really all that matters in the long run is getting the economies of poor countries to grow. On this view, GiveWell should focus on figuring out what causes some countries to experience explosive economic growth while others fail to, or even go backwards. Even modest improvements in the chances of such a 'growth miracle' will likely offer a bigger bang-for-buck than funding the incremental delivery of deworming tablets or vitamin A supplements, or anything else.Elie sees where both of these critiques are coming from, and notes that they've influenced GiveWell's work in some ways. But as he explains, he thinks they underestimate the practical difficulty of successfully pulling off either approach and finding better opportunities than what GiveWell funds today. In today's in-depth conversation, Elie and host Rob Wiblin cover the above, as well as:Why GiveWell flipped from not recommending chlorine dispensers as an intervention for safe drinking water to spending tens of millions of dollars on themWhat transferable lessons GiveWell learned from investigating different kinds of interventionsWhy the best treatment for premature babies in low-resource settings may involve less rather than more medicine.Severe malnourishment among children and what can be done about it.How to deal with hidden and non-obvious costs of a programmeSome cheap early treatments that can prevent kids from developing lifelong disabilitiesThe various roles GiveWell is currently hiring for, and what's distinctive about their organisational cultureAnd much more.Get this episode by subscribing to our podcast on the world's most pressing problems and how to solve them: type ‘80,000 Hours' into your podcasting app. Or read the transcript below.Producer: Keiran HarrisAudio mastering: Simon Monsour and Ben CordellTranscriptions: Katy Moore

In this episode of More Intelligent Tomorrow, Global AI Evangelist, Ari Kaplan, sits down with Brian Lemoff, Fellow and Head of Optics at Mojo Vision, and Mike Weimer, CTO at Mojo Vision, to discuss augmented reality, the future of wearable technology and the technology behind building a contact lens with built in display. Brian and Mike work for Mojo Vison, a company hard at work developing the first smart contact lens. The technology behind Mojo Lens is staggering, with the lens containing roughly 14,000 pixels per inch, with pixels less than two microns apart, sensors that track where your eye is pointing, and a display less than half a millimeter wide. But, how do you actually build something so functional in such a small space? Brian walks us through what it was like to start working at Mojo Vision;“I think the first few months I was with the company, all we did was brainstorm. A day in the life of the early company was come in the morning, talk about how we are going to do this, come up with ideas, go off and test out theories. And, we'll do back of the envelope calculations, a little simulation, come back, here's what's not working. And over time, come up with an idea that you think, Hey, this could actually hold together. ” - Brian LemoffIt turns out that the secret of building something revolutionary is to make changes incrementally over time.When asked about the future of wearable augmented reality, Mike outlines his predictions, which include a belief that most people will have some form of augmented wearable in the future, but the experience must be “invisible” for it to be successful - which is why Mike calls this approach “invisible computing.” “Our view is to create information systems that are invisible, and we call it invisible computing. It's about trying to get all that hardware out of the way and let you maintain your ability to be a social creature and interact with other humans, and yet still have access to that kind of information. That's the vision of where we're trying to go.” - Mike WeimerListen to this episode of More Intelligent Tomorrow to learn about:Augmented reality and how it can help people with disabilitiesThe use cases for augmented reality in sportHow to innovate in a constrained environmentHow to develop a user interface for an invisible computing experience

The self-publishing landscape has changed quite a bit since I self-published my first book in 2014. It was easy to sell your book using Amazon ads back then. These days, you've got to invest a lot more time and money and learn the basics of Amazon advertising. That's on top of learning how to commission a book cover, finding an editor, and the rest! But what if you don't want to do all of that? An alternative is to work with a small indie press. Maria Dismondy is the founder of Cardinal Rule Press. She's also an author and has published over ten children's books, and a podcaster who podcasts regularly on the topic of publishing. During our chat, she explained her writing journey, why she started writing children's books, and how she set up her publishing company. In this episode we discuss:Writing for childrenHow long it took Maria to set up a publishing companyFocusing on characters with disabilitiesThe process of working with a small pressA typical working day for MariaDeciding which books to publish each yearResources:Cardinal Rules PressMaria DismondyKindness is a Kite StringSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/becomeawritertoday)
