EMPOWERING DEAFBLIND COMMUNITIES
Tatum Robotics Foundation is a non-profit dedicated to help DeafBlind people of all ages access communication firsthand and have profound freedom through robotics. Our mission is to empower DeafBlind individuals by providing access to fundamental sources through innovative technology.
What is Tatum Robotics?
Tatum Robotics has created a translational device that can quickly and efficiently translate various sources, including news, emails, books, and live inputs exclusively for DeafBlind individuals ensuring a customizable and convenient experience through tactile signing. Tatum envisions a world where sources can be available firsthand, while choice and privacy are part of the experience.
During this process of design, the Tatum team realized that there a huge problem in DeafBlind people accessing tools to help them learn language. Since most existing asisstive technology programs only help DeafBlind people access technology for a langauge they are already familar with, there is little setup to help teach DeafBlind new modalities.
That is where the Tatum Robotics Foundation comes in! We are aiming to support DeafBlind people in getting access to technology to help them learn language, learn STEM, and connect with the world around them.
