bjbjBrBr m what is called the regional manager for Freedom Scientific Blind Low Vision Group.
And I m joined today by my colleague Charlie Madsen who ll have him explain his title a
little bit later. It s a good story he tells about his title. But, uh, Charlie will do
most of the heavy lifting today. And, what we have in store for you is an overview of
our low vision product line. Freedom Scientific as you may or may not know is very well known
for blindness technology. If you ve heard of the screenreader JAWS. We ve helped many
folks that are blind access the computer with the screenreader JAWS. About 6 years ago we
got into low vision hardware. We ve been developing and evolving that line ever since. And, we
ve got a great line that we re going out into the community and sharing with folks. Trying
to raise the awareness of our technology but also resources within your community. Having
the partnership with The Iris Network to be able to not only introduce clients to technologies
but also the services around using those technologies effectively whatever your goal is is kind
of the spirit of what today is all about. So, I ll turn it over to Charlie and enjoy
the presentation. Thanks Bill. Good morning. (All respond Good Morning ) So I d just like
to thank The Iris Network for letting us borrow this space and John for putting this together
for us. But, I d also like to thank all of you for coming out, coming through the snow
and the sleet, the cold and come to see this guy from Florida that s freezing up here with
the wrong clothes, footwear and jackets and such. Bill makes fun of me every year because
I don t own a coat but I travel all over the North. I don t see the point if I m not going
to be there for very long but I pay the price each time I come with my Florida jacket and
my ski cap. So we have a fun-filled day for you guys. I only have one rule, don t raise
your hand. Like most of you I m also low vision so you guys up front I ll see you if you do
but most likely in the back I won t because there is not much contrast with the walls
and your arms. So you ll sit there with your blood rushing out of your hands. So, just
yell out. It s all good. [Content_Types].xml _rels/.rels theme/theme/themeManager.xml sQ}#
