Introduced by Lion Drew Scheberle

Touch is the only sense that doesn't need a language. It works for everyone, everywhere, always. HapticNav has utilized technology to empower today's navigation to assist the blind, the elderly, the distracted, and anyone moving
through noise, glare, or with their hands full. They've worked with public transportation, cell phone and military operations to empower those who need additional navigation.

About our Speaker

Kevin Yoo is Haptic CEO and Founder, a technology company creating the universal language of touch. He's developing products and experiences that communicate information through vibrations. His mission is to redefine the way we intake information through technology, especially for those who face challenges with disabilities. Their flagship product, HapticNav made history by guiding the first blind runner in the NYC Marathon without sighted or audio assistance.
