How technology helps
How technology can support everyday life
Practical technology, developed with people who have vision and hearing loss — designed to support safety, communication, and independence, with the person in control.
The light-up white cane
Safer mobility
The light-up white cane adds optional lighting to a familiar white cane so the person using it is easier to see after dark — and it must stay fully usable with the light off or the battery empty.
How it started, what the first small pilot will focus on, and Jordan's own words are on the projects page.
Status: Early development
Concept interface — in development. Not a real product screen.
The transcript app
More accessible communication
The transcript app is being designed with deaf and hard-of-hearing people in mind: spoken conversation as clear, readable text, with the user in control of text size, contrast, privacy, and when transcription begins or ends.
It is one more communication option, never a replacement for sign language, interpreters, professional captioners, hearing technology, or any other accommodation.
The areas being explored, and the privacy commitments, are on the projects page.
Status: Concept and community-feedback stage
Built around the user
Technology that adapts to the person
No two people use technology the same way. Instead of asking people to adapt to a tool, the tool should adapt to them. Across both projects, that means designing for:
- Adjustable text size
- High-contrast display options
- Visual alerts
- Haptic (vibration) feedback
- User control over when a feature is active
- Accessibility preferences that stay the way you set them
- Privacy settings explained in plain language
This website is a small, lived example. The accessibility panel on every page lets you change text size, font, light or dark mode, and motion — and the site keeps your choices. We build with those controls because we use them.
