Description:
Be My Eyes may have solved a problem that potentially could make life a bit easier for blind people all over the World, and may have made a tiny revolution in the world of volunteering. Hans Jørgen Wiberg is visually impaired and got the idea of a volunteer video service for the blind using the great cameras in todays smartphones. From that idea he founded Be My Eyes with the vision of becoming a global micro-volunteering platform on iPhone providing help for the blind. With Be My Eyes he hopes to rethink traditional volunteering, and provide meaningful and much needed help for the blind. Hans Jørgen is trained in philosophy and works as a craftsman, but is first and foremostly an idea-starter with a deep interest in society, arts & technology -- with focus on access for all no matter their handicap!
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
