TOGETHER, WE ARE BUILDING TOMORROW’S TECHNOLOGY RIGHT NOW

THE FUTURE IS INCLUSIVE (AND HERE’S HOW WE GET THERE)

 


Delivery bots, too, could benefit our community — if the delivery systems are accessible.

“During the pandemic, home delivery kept many people safe. But what if the delivery bot — whether it is bringing home supplies, fresh produce, or a warm meal from a restaurant — doesn’t have a height that I can reach from my wheelchair and a convenient way to hand over the products being delivered?”

It’s all very exciting, says United Spinal Policy Fellow Kent Keyser.

“The great news is that almost everyone leading AV research and development is young — and young engineers see access and inclusion as a natural.

It’s rewarding to work with people who know about access, believe it’s the right thing to do, and know how to achieve it.”
