The system is designed for real-world social interactions at work, school, and in everyday life. It is intuitive, customizable, and built so users can prioritize the cues that matter most to them. Whether someone is preparing for a job interview and wants to focus on engagement, handshakes, and head nods, or a student wants to better connect with classmates by understanding emotions, ALEYE helps make those moments more accessible.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>We are currently providing live demos of ALEYE. That means a hands-on experience where people can try the system for themselves, explore different wristbands, and feel the vibration patterns that communicate specific social and nonverbal cues. The demo helps people understand exactly how ALEYE works in practice and what it feels like to receive this information through touch.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Warm regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Colin Wong MA, NOMC <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Graduate Researcher/Orientation & Mobility Instructor<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:s.colin.wong@gmail.com">s.colin.wong@gmail.com</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>480-886-4445 <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
