Once you have a user interface that people with disabilities could use easily, you could open up so many technological doors (literally in some cases). I'm thinking "Smart Homes" where someone in a wheelchair could operate nearly everything in their house with one device like this.<br /><br>

In my mind the most fulfilling hacks are like this. Very simple, interface-able with everything and can change lives. I would like to know what question or answer came up to get this idea started. Very Inspiring Grate post.<br /><br>
"The phone is a good start. But what else can you use bluetooth to hook up to?" "TV remote, Lights, Stero system, laptop, even an xbox or game console." I can make a bluetooth to universal Ir remote. Even a bluetooth RC car. You could imagine a kid who has never been able to drive an rc car before with something like this. All from the same device. <br /><br>

<br /><br>
relatively simple. very cheap. shockingly effective.<br /><br>
let's see some more development in these fields, man, I wanna make calls with my brain!<br /><br>
(Biomed is sort of my pet technology, lol)</p>

By the by, what happened to Product Post Thursday?</p>

Your products are great fun to tinker with, but it's always impressive to see someone take this equipment and design devices that will really help people in their daily lives. Nice work, Tekla!</p>
