RNIB Tech Talk

Listen Later

Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends, we're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside!

Steven, Robin and Andy return for another marvellous episode of Tech Talk - on this week's show we are joined by Stuart Beveridge, Assistive Technology Trainer at SeeScape. Stuart joins us to answer your questions on the 40-cell Braille display 'ElBraille', including if there are plans for a smaller model, and if it's compatible with personalised macros.

Also on the show, we talk about the Miele GuideLine, a unique washing machine designed specifically for blind and partially sighted people... more on that in a future episode! Also: Be My Eyes and RNIB, Alexa vs Siri, and the battle for supremacy among smart assistants, MacBook Pro desires, and the pain behind a lack of function keys on newer models, and after the unbridled success of his Turbo Scrubber... thing, Steven explains what else he's been spending his hard earned* money on this week... and keep your ears peeled for a brief appearance from Dougal the dog!

As mentioned during the show, you can contact Stuart at the following address: [email protected], or check out their website: https://www.seescape.org.uk/

Speaking of emails... here's ours! [email protected] - we love getting them, and we will read all of them (even if we are falling behind a little bit).

You've got to hear the show. It's a dynamo!
