WeWalk’s WeAssist Launches in North America

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

Steven Scott and Shaun Preece kick off the week with an entertaining discussion on NVDA 2026 beta pitfalls (all down to Steven being an idiot), and the joy of discovering the Instant Access add-on. Shaun shares his excitement about moving to the Keychron V6 Max mechanical keyboard for a better typing experience, while they both reflect on software accessibility challenges.

The episode’s highlight is a deep-dive interview with Dr. Jean-Marc Feghali from WeWalk, exploring:

  • WeAssist international rollout and its free vs. paid minute system.
  • Smart Cane 2 updates: speech rate control, new voices, obstacle detection improvements, and “Find My Cane.”
  • AI integration with Google Gemini for navigation and device control.
  • AIM (Artificial Intelligence Mobility) for orientation and mobility instructors to track and improve user mobility safely.
