Google is offering up new ways for people with various disabilities to more easily use their smartphones. The technology giant said that it’s now possible to control Android-powered smartphones hands-free by using simple gestures like smiling, raising eyebrows or looking in one direction.
The new options are available through two tools — Camera Switches and Project Activate — which use machine learning technology and the phone’s front-facing camera to pick up on gestures.
Digitability is the only scalable, STEM-focused, pre-employment transition curriculum that continues to be recognized as an innovative solution to the unemployment crisis facing a large — and growing — population of those with disabilities, such as Autism, Intellectual Disability, or Down Syndrome.
