Accessible Technology with Human-Computer Interactions, with Austin Lubetkin | Autism Tips & Tools

How can someone control a computer with their mind?  In this episode, Austin Lubetkin talks about his patent for the first interface that would allow a fully paralyzed individual to type and control a computer with their brain.  Austin is an Autistic artist, aerospace-software engineer, and inventor. He has synesthesia, a phenomenon in which stimuli that would typically activate one sense can stimulate other senses at the same time. This has allowed him to create unique and accessible art experiences, some meant to make people even touch and hear colors. Austin uses his art to spread awareness of various mental conditions.  Welcome to Autism Tips & Tools, where we highlight the best practical guidance from previous episodes of Autism Knows No Borders.
