This is what Be My Eyes was foreshadowing at #NFB24. Microsoft recruits accessibility app to make its AI more useful to blind and low-vision users https://www.engadget.com/ai/microsoft-recruits-accessibility-app-to-make-its-ai-more-useful-to-blind-and-low-vision-users-130006439.html

BT Speak users, I'm very interested to know! What is your favorite use case for the device? I have been eagerly following the development of this since February, and loved putting my hands on it at #NFB24. From the demos and tutorials I have heard, and getting to see the device about a month ago, I really see the potential. I would love one, but trying to determine how it would fit into my daily routine.

To those who were able to get their hands on the activator what are your thoughts? I had the opportunity to mess around with it during #NFB24 but I was interested in the thoughts of others who experienced the device? #Braille

#nfb24 In my lyft heading home from the cleveland airport. My trip was uneventful, but I'm getting reports that MCO got even more insane as the morning progressed.

At my gate, ready to board my flight from what was an absolutely fantastic convention. Already excited to join my Federation family in New Orleans next year, but right now, I am looking forward to seeing my family back home. What a week and a fantastic stay at the Rosen Centre. This was my 10th convention, and it was very special to be back at the hotel where it all began for me. #NFB24

@douglawlor I sent a message to @[email protected] about that #nfb24

Today has been one of the most memorable days of my life. I will remember the Bolotin Award ceremony forever, but I will also remember a very emotional opportunity I took to tell Mrs Jernigan about how her late husband gave a blind teenager from the other side of the world hope, when I had none. I appreciate having had the chance to do that. #nfb24

@JonathanMosen Hope you got to demo the tests? Hope some of those #NFB24 resolutions can be brought to the floor at #ABCNZ #Conference24. I heard last week podcast regarding medical device. #Accessibility, and it’s unacceptable in 2024 to sell #Inaccessible medical devices, and regulators must step in.

I'm still recovering from #nfb23. But it was an amazing week of networking and meeting people, let's hope to do it again in 2024 in Orlando, Florida for #NFB24!

Sitting in the Houston airport now with very little sleep, I can’t wait to get home to see the wife and kids. This year’s #NFB convention was great, especially for the members of our group. Looking forward to what next year holds. #NFB23 #NFB24

well, that's a wrap for #nfb23 for me, it was a pleasure catching up with friends old and knew. I depart for the airport in just under an hour, If we connected, and didn't exchange contact info, reach out and we'll sort it out, as some of you I literally shook your hand in n elivator or running past you, to or from a session, or in the imfamous starbucks line. Will you see me at #nfb24 in Orlando? Only time will tell! But houston it was fun, Cleveland, where home is, see you in a few hours, Dallas, I'll see you in 11 days!
