How the blind use technology to see the world | Austin Seraphin | TEDxPhiladelphia
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. How do blind people use the iPhone? That’s a question computer programmer Austin Seraphin – blind since birth – wanted to know. In this surprisingly funny and personal talk, Austin shares how technology changed his universe and what it means to make apps, gadgets and even street art accessible to all, sighted or not.
Austin Seraphin became blind at birth, and he started programming at age 7 on an Apple II/e. Now, he blends his passion for technology with a first-hand insight into how tech affects the lives of the blind. In 2010, he got an iPhone, which changed his universe forever. It has inspired him to work with developers to make their apps accessible to all.
