Talking Technology with V I Labs Episode 94 - pregnancy tests for blind people

Saison 3 · Épisode 94

mardi 9 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:08:59

For someone who is blind or visually impaired, how do you get the result of a pregnancy test? Often, a blind or visually impaired person isn’t the first to know about their own test result. This is because traditionally, pregnancy tests, as well as many other health-related checks, have been inaccessible.

On this episode, we speak with Leah Shanahan about AMY, a pregnancy test that she has designed for those who are blind or visually impaired. We also catch up with Adela Buliman from Vially on the topic.

We have voice notes on Glide as well as a unique use case for meta glasses, and in tech news, we’ve got info on Zippay, gaming, and this evening’s Apple event.

On this extra episode of Talking Technology, we only have one topic on the agenda.

Glidance, makers of the new glide mobility aid, have announced that the product won’t be coming to Europe at launch, and all European customers are being refunded.

We speak to CEO Amos Miller to ask why they made the decision they did, what this means for the future of glide, and how it will impact those who purchase glide legitimately in the launch countries of the US, UK, and Canada.

We also catch up with Kevin Kelly, Vision Ireland’s head of policies, partnerships, and external affairs, to get his reaction to the news. He tells us how he feels personally and how Vision Ireland is responding.

Talking Technology with V I Labs Episode 91 - Let’s talk about the Meta Glasses

Saison 3 · Épisode 91

mardi 12 août 2025 • Durée 01:19:38

Meta Glasses have been a major topic of conversation for blind people for a few months at this point, but unfortunately, those in Ireland were left out.

Things are finally starting to change, however, so in this podcast we try out the Meta Glasses without a VPN in sight. Are wearables the next step forward for those who are blind or visually impaired?

As well as our in-depth look at Meta Glasses, we also explore other topics including AI in Uber Eats, hotel accessibility updates in Westmeath, and a smart washing machine that doesn’t want to be smart.

We have voice notes, rumours of an extra Talking Technology episode coming soon, and we exclusively announce details of a nationwide V I Labs event taking place in September.

Saison 3 · Épisode 90

mardi 29 juillet 2025 • Durée 55:36

It’s fair to say that RTÉ Player has had ups and downs when it comes to accessibility over the years. With the European Accessibility Act now in full effect, though, the team at RTÉ seem to be rolling out major upgrades.

Talking Technology with V I Labs episode 89 - Would David make a good getaway driver? Zero Limits 2025

Saison 3 · Épisode 89

mardi 15 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:11:21

On this episode of Talking Technology, we attend the Zero Limits Track Day in Mondello Park.

We speak to those attending to get their views on the future possibility of self-driving cars and ask if this technology would be embraced by those with sight loss.

David tries driving for the first time, and it turns out there’s hope for him yet as a getaway driver. What could possibly go wrong?

Vision Sports CEO Aaron Mullaniff gives a very energetic speech, and after his first driving experience, David takes a literal spin in a drift car. He was not behind the wheel, thankfully.

Tech news, smart home shutdowns, and is ChromeVox dead? All that and more on this episode of Talking Technology.
