Today on the show, Steven and Shaun discuss the sad news of the closure of the company behind Sunu band, a mobility aid that used sonar and was worn on the wrist to help someone navigate their surroundings while using a cane or guide dog. We feature a statement from their founder.
Also, there's a slew of accessibility updates to talk through, from Google and Xbox. Read more from Paul Thurrott's blog: https://www.thurrott.com/google/291115/google-and-xbox-announce-new-accessibility-features
