06/16/2024 Assistive Technology

 06/16/2024

Today, Barb went to Best Buy and bought a Google nest, mini, stringer lights, and a few smart plugs for the house. I was able to get Jacob set up with his voice control, using his Tobii Dynavox. He can now control his lights and fans by simply saying. "Hey Google"... turn fans on/off, turn lights on/off, etc. 

Jacob loves this voice control and says "It's amazing!"

UPDATE:

Approximately two weeks later, the ALS United Ohio organization sent Jacob more switches, two more Google Nest Minis, and a box of smart lightbulbs, giving him access to more control, as well as broadcast announcement ability.
