We have heard much of this in the recent past, and we will keep hearing about them and things are progressing very well in each of these tracks! Today, we have two different stories about Google Glass - one that will help people get the cheapest prosthesis, and two, one blind Paralympian Glass using Google to show the children their view and increase your confidence.
Prosthesis With Google Glass
Traditionally, to achieve prosthesis requires travel to a clinic, where a large machine with a robot arm measurement determines the specifications of the brace or leg prosthesis necessary. Of course, this process is not cheap because the machine itself costs thousands of dollars tense, and usually, the clinic would like to pass on costs to customers.
This will hopefully change soon. A research team from the University of Delaware is exploring more affordable and convenient ways to do exactly the same thing, but without the exorbitant costs of obtaining additional prosthesis of a traditional clinic.
The team is using Google Glass to capture all the information of the foot and leg in the videos. These videos are then stitched together to obtain a 3D model and then cast instantly transformed into a template for a 3D printer. This method, first, reduce costs for patients and the second of all, it is convenient to go through this process at home without having to go to the clinic for the measures taken. The patient can print the brace at home if they have a 3D printer or sent to a laboratory 3D printing or study.
The team soon funding is requested to expand in prosthetics as well.
A combination of technology as Google and Glass 3D printing helps bring manufacturing to everyday consumers who are not engineers or manufacturers.
Google Glass And A Blind Paralympic
Disability advocates are always looking for different ways to show the abilities, not disabilities for people with disabilities. Google Glass will be used for that purpose.
Lex is a blind Paralympic Gilette started to lose his sight when he was seven. He has won three silver medals and holds the world record long jump F11 for qualified athletes. Being blind, he has to depend on someone to direct you around the track and make calls for him on the fly.
"No need to view when you have a vision."
The plan is to use Google Lex Glass and show your viewpoint to high school kids so they could see what all that entails, and how a blind Paralympic ago. The idea is to show kids that anything is possible, and how not to be able to body does not cause hindrance to their goals. Through Google Glass, Lex aims to get kids from high school with more confidence.
