Got a Mention on the Christopher Reeve Foundation Website

The Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation posted a little blurb about my app on their daily blog. http://www.spinalcordinjury-paralysis.org/dailydose/2013/05/14/ada-in-3d-app The app is an illustrated and interactive version of the ADA building code. I really think the app can help and educate people and hopefully this mention will get word of the app spread around. Big thank you again to all the Buzztouch people who helped me get the app made and published!

So cool! Congratulations! We need you in our BuzztouchAbility group. Our first meeting is next week. It is so cool to see how we can use technology to help people with disabilities! I just posted this to our Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/BuzztouchAbility

I'd seriously consider hooking up with @LA and his podcast/meetup group. You two could do some serious justice to disability related apps! Congrats on the nod from the site...that must be SUPER gratifying! Mark

Wonderful! it seems that there are more people talking about disabilities around, it is important to direct everybody to the right place: https://www.facebook.com/BuzztouchAbility just like Susan pointed out before me. Please make sure to leave a comment on the site, so that we can keep it alive! Please tell your friends about it, there is a lot of good stuff on the LA disability blog that you can find on the FB page, very interesting to read, and also very interesting to listen to in podcast, for those who have difficulties to read. Congratulation to your app! Frogman

Just joined the facebook group. Hopefully it can foster ideas. LA, I did in fact make this app with Buzztouch. I wanted to make it because I know many people have trouble understanding or visualizing building code. I knew pictures and models would communicate better for some and could be used as a tool for many professions. And with the new ADA standards coming out I figured now would be a good time for this app. -Wyatt

@Tooly, Yes, this was a great time to release it. Many contractors and private do not understand the building codes. LA

Wyatt -- nice app! The video at bottom of this page gives tremendous insight: http://www.universaldesignstyle.com/ada-in-3d/ How did you do the 180-degree models? Were they stitched together as described on this page? https://developer.apple.com/safaridemos/threesixty.php -- Niraj

Niraj, I used a software program calle Webrotate 360 http://www.webrotate360.com/360-product-viewer.html. I used the free version which works really well and is easy to use. I just uploaded the html file to my website and linked them.
