The saying goes, build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door. If it is built, it will likely be designed by an engineering technologist. For example, A team of former NAIT biomedical engineering technology students received a provincial award for the Capstone Project of the Year Award for their visionary invention of the VISAIDE Smart Cane. By touching buttons on the Smart Cane’s handle, a visually impaired user can connect with her or his iPhone to activate various functions. To find out more about the cane, and how engineering technologists play a role in all our day-to-day lives, Barry Cavanagh, CEO of the Association of Science and Engineering Technology Professionals of Alberta (ASET) joined Russell on Daybreak.
