Guests with Disabilities Will Soon Have Electronic Assistance

Some time ago, I heard that Disney was developing technology to assist guests with disabilities. Now, it seems that technology will soon be available at Walt Disney World--coming this Sunday! This Assisted Technology Device is pretty amazing, as it provides detailed explaination of surroundings for visually impaired guests and amplified audio and captioning for hearing impaired guests. Kudos to Disney for providing this first-of-its-kind technology! You can read more at the official Disney Parks Blog.
