Poster Presentation Undergraduate Students: John Herring and Andrew Bluhm
Research Mentor: Billy Kihei
We seek to allow users with cognitive disabilities to gain easier access to information and communication to help them throughout their day. To accomplish this, we created a handheld device composed of three buttons. On demand, users will have the current day of the week, time, and date recalled to them. Users or care takers can also record voice memos and repeat their voice memos back to them. Lastly, we integrate a Calendar API to collect the events set by a user or caretaker. Caretakers can update the users Calendar on the device remotely.
