It’s all about hands-free access in this episode as we talk with Agiga’s Buddy Brannan about the Echo Vision smart glasses and Aira. Ollie Octilio, our Aira mascot has all eight of his tentacles busy at this year’s CSUN Assistive Technology Conference. Not only is Aira use at the conference free, but we’ll be giving away all sorts of prizes, plus demos and a chance to take Ollie home with you just by visiting our booth. Not going to CSUN? No worries. We’ve got ways for you to win while keeping up with our integration with AI glasses from Meta.
