Assistive Technology Club

This is a collaborative workshop where LMS members can work on Assistive Technology projects together. This event is for LMS members only, it is not a formal class or a LMS staff mentoring opportunity. Attendees should have basic knowledge of computer aided design (CAD) on Fusion 360 or other software.

Assistive Technology (AT) encompasses a wide range of tools, from low-tech items like pencil grips to high-tech devices like screen readers. AT is technology used by individuals with disabilities in order to perform functions that might otherwise be difficult or impossible.
