One of the things you might have noticed in recent updates — and something we haven’t discussed — is that the LipSync mouthpiece looks quite a bit different than it did a few months ago. Why? With a new joystick apparatus, it required a new mouthpiece.
On Tuesday, we went to school. But we weren’t writing tests, and while we did give a few speeches, the most important thing is what the students did. Over the course of one school day, a group of about 50 students at Burnaby South Secondary students spent the day with us and built over 20 LipSyncs.
Over 50 Burnaby South Secondary students will be coming together on April 25, 2017 at the LipSync Buildathon in Burnaby, British Columbia to build LipSyncs, an open source assistive technology device for people with disabilities.
With the LipSync, we’ve built in a few different functions to mimic those hand gestures with a sip and puff device.
We are excited to tell you about the first “homebuilt” LipSync – the first one made outside of our initiatives.
