    Cafe staffed by robots piloted by people with #disabilities to open in #Tokyo

    By Toby M, Mar. 5, 2021

    "#OriHime is a charming Japanese robot. Like most robots made in Japan, it’s full of circuitry, programming chips, and has an exterior human-like shell. Though in OriHime’s case, it’s more #WallE than terminator thanks to the soft edges and large babyish eyes.

    "The interior of OriHime is also intrinsically human in many ways that its robot brethren are not. OriHime’s purpose is to be a vessel that empowers people who have difficulty going outside or moving due to severe disabilities or illnesses such as #ALS to connect with everyday society and people within. Practically speaking, the robot can support people who are bed bound to connect with distant family, or work a job for example.

    "Since 2018, people with disabilities have taken up opportunities to work as cafe staff through OriHime in the pop-up cafe 'Avatar Cafe DAWN ver.β'. Avatar Cafe DAWN seeks to eliminate human loneliness by enabling people who are bed or house bound to enjoy working as cafe staff and communicating with customers."

  4. I'm proud to announce the launch of Blind Productions.
    Blind Productions is a showcase and community I built to celebrate blind creative professionals — musicians, DJs, actors, authors, podcasters, and content creators — and to give us one place to discover each other's work, collaborate, and connect.
    Here's the honest part: this is the ground floor. The doors are open, the foundation is built, and now it's time to fill it up. I'm inviting you to help shape what this becomes — a living archive that future generations can search to discover the musicians and creators who came before them, and a moderated space where we create, support one another, and network as a community.
    What's here today:
    • A searchable directory of blind creatives, each profile with a bio, links to their work, audio to listen to, and video to watch.
    • A moderated community forum for collaboration, support, opportunities, and networking.
    • Accessibility built in from the ground up — screen-reader friendly, fully keyboard operable, with adjustable text, themes, and high contrast on every page.
    So here's my ask: start submitting profile suggestions. Nominate yourself. Nominate the artists you admire. Bring the people who deserve to be found. Create a free account, join the conversation, and let's build something that lasts.
    This is how a legacy gets started — together.
    Explore and submit: blind.productions
    You must be 18 or older to join.

  6. As technologists, we have a unique and wonderful opportunity to make the world more inclusive, and so today, on #IDPWD, please think about how you can make your work more inclusive, more accessible, more open.

    By helping one group of people, we make experiences better for everyone -- think about how captions have made your life easier, even if your hearing is perfect.

    Our #Accessibility Handbook is a great place to start: ter.li/rff2zc
