Since we are all are in the midst of working on our final projects I was doing a little research on groups who have come up with new innovative ideas and came across one of our very own. ASU's Cubic team worked on a project that involves a camera, pen, and multi-touch tablet to help the blind. They will be going on to compete in the Imagine Cup 2011 Worldwide Finals in New York City. This might give a little inspiration for our own projects.
There is even a link to the article.

This is awesome! I think it is really amazing how our current technology can help the disabled. There is so much technology out there that one day I believe the blind can leave home with out there walking stick, hopefully I will be on that team to make that happen.
