They are part of the Haptic Team, which is</span><br><span>creating a vibrating screen that will help blind people feel images. They</span><br><span>think that their device will be especially useful for blind children and</span><br><span>adults who are studying math.</span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>I need adult totally blind adult volunteers to look at the device and</span><br><span>provide feedback. We will be doing it before and after the Chapter meeting.</span><br><span>It only takes about 15 minutes. We also need children to talk to the team</span><br><span>about what they do in their math class. </span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>Adults, please send me your name off-list if you are able to help with this</span><br><span>project. Parents, please let me know if you are bringing your children,</span><br><span>and if you will permit them to talk to these college students. The children</span><br><span>can do this while the Chapter meeting is in progress. I will set up a</span><br><span>schedule for both adults and children, so please get back to me ASAP. It is</span><br><span>important for us to help these college students so that they develop a</span><br><span>device that is really useful to us.</span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>Thanks in advance for your help.</span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>Sharon Maneki, President</span><br><span></span><br><span>National Federation of the Blind of Maryland</span><br><span></span><br><span>410-715-9596</span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Greater-baltimore mailing list</span><br><span><a href="mailto:Greater-baltimore@nfbnet.org">Greater-baltimore@nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/greater-baltimore_nfbnet.org">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/greater-baltimore_nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for</span><br><span>Greater-baltimore:</span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/greater-baltimore_nfbnet.org/mjhartle23%40">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/greater-baltimore_nfbnet.org/mjhartle23%40</a></span><br><span><a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Nfbmdtlc-chapter mailing list</span><br><span><a href="mailto:Nfbmdtlc-chapter@nfbnet.org">Nfbmdtlc-chapter@nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfbmdtlc-chapter_nfbnet.org">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfbmdtlc-chapter_nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for Nfbmdtlc-chapter:</span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/nfbmdtlc-chapter_nfbnet.org/uniquelyblessed1%40yahoo.comI">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/nfbmdtlc-chapter_nfbnet.org/uniquelyblessed1%40yahoo.comI</a> can help but it has to be before the meeting because I have another meeting after the chapter meeting so I had to leave at 11:30 this is Sherria Young.
