Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view. 

On this week's show: 

"Techfest 2024” 

The show that had so much material it needed to go for an hour!  

Techfest was held in Adelaide 6th November. This expo brought together the leading brands in Adaptive Technology for Vision Impaired and Blind users, as well as some of the latest innovations from companies like Apple and Ray Ban.  

Lizzie and Sam were there to check out the merchandise and talk to the vendors.
