Vandaag: aan de slag met braille en indoor navigatie en terugblikken op de week. Reageren: visiolab@visio.org

Join us to hear highlights of the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show from Mike May, GoodMaps Chief Evangelist, and Gena Harper. Mike has been providing his summary of CES for over 20 years. He is currently Chief Evangelist at Goodmaps and has talked about that product on Tek Talk in late 2021. They will touch on popular products, cool products, weird products and accessible products. Presenter contact info: https://goodmaps.com/company/people/5f8f24bfcfdf73000e643b18

My guest this week on the Work in Progress podcast is Mike May, who holds the title of chief evangelist at GoodMaps, a tech company helping the visually impaired navigate large venues such as convention centers, universities, hotels, and rail stations. "We take the outdoor navigation that everybody's used to and turn it into turn-by-turn navigation with GPS indoors. We do outdoors, but for most people, you lose your route and your directions once you go inside," explain May. May and I met at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas in January. He has firsthand experience with the challenges of navigating a big space such as the Las Vegas Convention Center, which is a whopping 4.6 million square feet. May was blinded in an accident when he was a young child. May says there is a 70% unemployment rate among blind people -- he is among the 30% with a "good, viable job" as he describes it. "Technology's a big part of getting a job, and getting to a job, and maintaining that job and performing, but there's also about attitudes. And that's something that's going to be an ongoing process for everybody to understand that we're all individuals, not all blind people operate the same way," he explains. He says technology such at GoodMaps can help increase the potential for hiring and advancement for people like him once they enter the workforce. Mike May, chief evangelist, GoodMaps at CES (Photo: WorkingNation) Here is some of what May told me at CES. "In terms of blind people, the better you get around, the better you engage in life and in a career. And so if you go to a company these days and they have hoteling, or open desks, how do you find your desk when it may not be in the same place every day? "What if you go to see a client and you want to get to somebody's office without having to have sighted assistance? So we're providing independence and really the opportunity for career advancement and keeping a very precious job and doing it well by having the navigation component part of that equation. "I've talked about how getting to and from a job and navigating within that job is important, but there's a huge component about the tools that are available in a job. And there's so many pieces of software these days that are marginally accessible. "I could be sitting at my desk and only get 10% of the information that's on the screen. And a lot of these big companies have software that's not fully accessible. And so I may get through the hurdle of getting hired for a job, but then I can't manage the payroll software, or the sales software, or something like Salesforce, which takes a lot of training. "Even though these companies are making efforts to make this stuff accessible, that tends to be the most significant barrier once somebody does get hired."

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. Artifacts from Blackbeard's sunken pirate ship are on display in the North Carolina Maritime Museum in Beaufort, North Carolina. But now they are also accessible to visitors who are blind, thanks to the efforts of Peter Crumley, who spearheads the Beaufort Blind Project. In this episode, we ask: How can new technology help make sites like these as accessible to people who are blind as they are to sighted people? We profile three companies applying new technologies paired with smartphone capabilities, to make strides in indoor navigation, orientation, and information transfer. Idan Meir is co-founder of RightHear, which uses Apple's iBeacon technology to make visual signage dynamic and accessible via audio descriptions. We check in with Javier Pita, CEO of the NaviLens QR code technology which we profiled in our first season to see what they have been developing in the last two years. Rather than iBeacons or QR codes, GoodMaps uses LiDAR and geocoding to map the interior of a space. We speak with Mike May, Chief Evangelist. Thanks to Peter Crumley, the North Carolina Maritime Museum is fully outfitted with GoodMaps, and will soon have NaviLens as well. As the prices of these tools come down, the key will be getting them into all the buildings, organizations, and sites of information transfer that people who are blind need to access – which is all of them.   The Big Takeaways: Beaufort Blind Project. Peter Crumley, a blind resident of Beaufort, North Carolina, has advocated having accessibility tools brought to various parts of his hometown. Along the way, he helped the North Carolina Maritime Museum outfit itself with GoodMaps technology for indoor navigation, and with NaviLens QR codes for information transfer. Thanks to these new technologies, the museum artifacts are now accessible to everyone. RightHear. Idan Meir cofounded RightHear, which uses iBeacon technology paired with users' smartphones to guide visitors who are blind through an indoor space. iBeacons send unique signatures via low Bluetooth signals to phones inside the radius. When these iBeacons are paired with areas of interest in a space (e.g. the front door, the counters, or the bathrooms) users can orient themselves within a space, and identify where they want to go and how they want to navigate to each location. RightHear translates the information embedded in each beacon into audio feedback for users. On the subject of feedback, Idan Meir is looking for beta testers to try out RightHear and provide him with constructive feedback. NaviLens. We profiled NaviLens QR code technology in an episode from our first season. In this episode, we follow up with Javier Pita to see what has been in development in the last two years. Since we last spoke, NaviLens has launched NaviLens 360, which uses magnets to help guide users who are blind to the NaviLens codes, even if their camera is having trouble picking up the code, making the app even more user-friendly. In addition, NaviLens has launched a partnership with Kellogg's in Europe and North America to test the effectiveness of the Navilens code on consumer product packaging. GoodMaps. GoodMaps uses LiDAR technology to map a space. Lasers are sent out from the LiDAR sensor, and when they bounce back, they have captured distances from the point of origin. Institutions work with GoodMaps to pay for the mapping service, and then users can access the maps for free. The app uses audio to communicate navigational directions with users. Technological advancement. Each of these tools relies on component technologies that have gotten less expensive in recent years (iBeacons, QR Codes, and LiDAR). They are also able to exist because their target markets carry smartphones in their pockets, enabling these potential users to access the tools quickly and easily, without much additional hassle or investment. Distribution. In this episode, we profile three different approaches to broadening access to indoor navigation technology, including for orientation and information transfer, proving there are many ways to solve these problems. It is good that some of these tools can be paired, as has been done at the North Carolina Maritime Museum, and that users may be able to choose which tools work best for them. The key will be getting them into all the buildings, organizations, and sites of information transfer that people who are blind need to access – which is all of them.   Tweetables: “The advocacy is so important; when you're actually interfacing with the app to make the app better and make it work in a way that a blind person really needs it to work.” – Peter Crumley, Beaufort Blind Project “Well, it's gonna be built from blind perspective philosophy. So not only will it work for me — it will work for anyone, totally blind and fully sighted to give an interactive experience.” – Peter Crumley, Beaufort Blind Project “Imagine, if this technology will be in all the products, we will solve the problem of accessible packaging for all users.” – Javier Pita, NaviLens “The point is we have solved the last few yards of the wayfinding problem that is super important for a blind user. And this was born in New York City with the collaboration with the MTA and the department of transportation of New York City.” – Javier Pita, NaviLens “That camera picks up the environment and it compares it with that point cloud and says, “I see based on this particular image … that you are near the Starbucks,” or “You're near Gate 27.” –Mike May, GoodMaps “It was important and kind of obvious for us from the very early on, you know, that nothing about us without us. It was clear to us that we have to involve users in the process. –Idan Meir, RightHear   Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss.   Pertinent Links: Lighthouse Guild RightHear NaviLens GoodMaps

Across the AHSN Network, work is underway to foster better relations with healthtech companies with the aim of enabling patients to benefit from innovations. We've helped introduce ground-breaking products and services which are already adding value across healthcare. At ConfedExpo in June 2022, our reporter Nigel Thompson caught up with Neil Barnfather from Goodmaps. The company have been assisted by Wessex AHSN to share technology which enables independence and aids navigation for anyone whether blind, deaf, mobility impaired or those wanting to find an easier way to get from A to B.

Join us and our guests from Goodmaps, Evelyn Tichenor, Chief of Staff & Mike May, Chief Evangelist as we talk about indoor mapping and the challenges of too little or too much information.

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show. Pinch hitting for Ed is Joe Steinkamp who joins Brian and Allison in the virtual studio to discuss all the latest greatest tech news.   It's the hundred year anniversary of the white cane . Is it time for a robotic cane, and would you trust it?   Twitter is developing a pop up to warn people who are too stupid to realize they are about to get in to a Twitter beef!   GoodMaps is now free on both iOS and Android. The app is off to a good start  with outdoor mapping, but the future could be in indoor mapping.  Our conversation strolls in to some of our other favorite navigation apps including Blind Square GPS, Google Maps, Lazarillo, Microsoft Soundscape, and a mention of Apple Maps.    Because we have Joe here, we figured we would speak a little Microsoft, it also helped that Microsoft had a slew of announcements over the past few weeks. Have you installed Windows 11 yet? Joe explains to us some of the new designs to Windows 11.    We then jump in to Microsoft's version of the iPad and mass confusion the name of all the Surface devices.  And yes, after hearing Joe explain them all, Brian felt like his head was going to explode.    If the Surface line wasn't confusing enough, try figuring out all the different Microsoft Office packages now available. Our favorite is the Ewok Office.    It wasn't all Microsoft as Amazon had a slew of announcements. The most notable, Astro. Will this be a help to the blind or just a giant hinderance? This leads us to discuss how much information is too much information?    And it's more of What's Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Streaming Watcha Reading.      To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow , or leave us an old school phone message at 929-367-1005.

Matthew Layton and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio's weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view. This week… A rather remarkable gentleman by the name of Mike May. Mike lost his sight as a child, but in 2000, at the age of 46, following multiple procedures involving cornea transplants and pioneering stem cell therapy, Mike regained some sight in one of his eyes. That's remarkable in and of itself, but Mike is also an accessible technology pioneer. He is the founder of The Sendero Group - who were the first company to make the power of GPS accessible to people with little or no vision - and is now Chief Evangelist at GoodMaps. He also happens to be the fastest blind man on two skis - and that's official! -- CALL or TEXT: 04 500 78834 EMAIL: studio1@visionaustralia.org   TWITTER: http://twitter.com/varadionetwork  and  http://twitter.com/whingeingpom  -- [PHOTO CAPTION: Studio 1 guest Mike May, looking very dapper in a well-cut suit, sitting behind his desk, smiling in a very welcoming manner.] -- GUESTS AND RESOURCES GoodMaps - https://www.goodmaps.com/ Tammey Candeloro - Counselling 4 You WA - 0423 93 15 74 - www.tammey.com.au  -- Vision Australia gratefully acknowledges the support of the Community Broadcasting Foundation for Studio 1.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to another episode of the Sight and Sound Technology podcast. Today we're catching up with an old friend, as Stuart sits down with Neil Barnfather, Vice President, Europe for Goodmaps.GoodMaps was born out of the American Printing House for the Blind (APH). Founded in 2019 and based out of Louisville, GoodMaps (previously named Access Explorer) was created by APH with a simple mission: to further the cause of accessible navigation. Realizing that the mission of universal accessible navigation was limited by the lack of indoor digital mapping, the GoodMaps platform and company were born.

Episode 68: Jose Gaztambide, CEO of Goodmaps highlights the importance of caring about people, knowing the value you bring, and work life balance as a founder. Goodmaps is furthering the cause of accessible navigation with their digital indoor mapping solution. They providing a customer portal where venue owners can access and edit their digital maps in multiple views: 2D floorplan, 3D model, and LiDAR point cloud. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/awesomeinc/message
