| Motorola and Google have donated Android smartphones for development
of applications for people with disabilities. Four MSU Computer Science
undergraduate students, Nic Speeter, Paul Fritschen, Christine Varley,
and David Markachev, are working with Dr. Richard Enbody, Associate
Professor of Computer Science and Engineering, and MSU's Resource
Center for Persons with Disabilites (RCPD).
The first app assists blind people in knowing who is at a meeting. This research is part of a larger team that includes Dr. Michael Shanblatt of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Michael Hudson, director of RCPD, and Dr. John Gerlach of the Biomedical Laboratory Diagnostics Program. |
