A Unique "Up Close" Look Into HumanWare's Operations and Vision For Its
Future, Part 2, and An Update on VR Stream Version 1.2.
The Accessible World News Wire: February 12, 2008 Indianapolis, Indiana USA
Those of you who joined us January 7 for the special Tech Talk featuring the
up close look at HumanWare with Gilles Pepin, CEO and Pierre Hamel Vice
President of Research and Development may remember that Pierre was unable to
complete his presentation due to Internet issues that disrupted the
Accessible World broadcast. Pierre has graciously accepted to repeat that
presentation for us February 18.
HumanWare has a sound reputation for innovation including products like
BrailleNote, Victor Reader, Trekker GPS, Maestro, My Reader and of course
the Stream. Here is your chance to learn how that innovation is embodied in
the HumanWare product development process. Pierre will describe the R&D
activities within Humanware. He will summarize how HumanWare takes a
technology concept and the stages that transform it to a final marketable
product. Pierre will also answer your questions
after his presentation.
After Pierre, we will again be joined by Gerry Chevalier, Victor Reader
Product Manager who will give us an overview of the new software version 1.2
for the Stream scheduled for release in mid February. The Stream continues
to grow in popularity and HumanWare has been fast-tracking another release
of software that directly responds to feedback from the ever growing Stream
user community.
Join us to hear Pierre's insight to HumanWare product development and the
latest news of the Stream from Gerry.
