Our next spotlight is a standout. @keithnin is the co-founder and Chief Haptic Officer of #WearWorks (Cohort 2), a startup that designs wearable devices to help guide the blind and visually impaired. #BlackHistoryMonth Learn more about Wearworks: bit.ly/3vAeUCa


Just wanted to take the time to say #HappyNewYear. May your #2023 glass be full of whatever you define as success. And thanks to @sipsofsuccess for the container reminder. @ Brooklyn, New York instagram.com/p/Cm2xMFOrq5M/…


How do we make #haptic become a word everyone knows? #lightbulb What if you put it in a rap? Listen to the first verse of "rHaptics" as we make "haptic" (of or relating to the sense of touch) as common a word as "optic" (relating to the eye or vision). @WearWorksInc

Here's a great chance to try how it feels wayfinding with the Wayband. We made ourselves recognizable for you as a moving QR code in the @sxsw premises & many other surprises along the way until March 20 in TX #SXSW2022 #wearworks #wayband #wearabletech #navigation #innovation

Geeking out on haptics with @keithnin cofounder of @WearWorksInc 1st product, Wayband, haptic navigation for the blind. So cool. We imagined how stimulating a sense of touch might help empower an @iamlunayou Mama to improve her own maternal health outcomes.
