Hi Derbhile,

Many thanks for your email and kind words!

I think pushing these topics on to mainstream radio is the way we need to go in 
the future.

Noggling is more for object recognition, whereas the KNFB reader is more of a 
text scanning solution.

Regards, and thanks again!

Stuart.

Hi

Just a note to say well done to Stuart Lawler for lifting the list on assistive 
technology to listeners of the John Murray Show. He really demonstrated the 
skill visually impaired people have with computers and how easily accessible 
computers are other technologies are now. A lot of sighted people still think 
visually impaired people can't use a computer, so Stuart's interview did a lot 
to debunk the myth. And I'm sure all our lives are richer for knowing how to 
'noggle.'

By the way, Stuart, is that noggle thing the same as the KNFB reader?

Best wishes, 

Derbhile
