Smart home devices have been a godsend for accessibility though. My dad’s got Parkinson’s disease. He couldn’t adjust our lamps without knocking them over and he couldn’t use the pullcords on the ceiling fan lights without losing his balance. Smart bulbs + Google Assistant are the only reason why he doesn’t need someone to turn the lights on/off for him.
Not everyone has the same needs, and unfortunately if these things weren’t mass market products they probably wouldn’t exist, or only exist at a price point that nobody living on disability payments could afford.
I’m looking into moving him over to a locally hosted setup, but this tech is still critical for a subset of people and definitely needs to exist at an affordable price.
Absolutely! I’m disabled and it can take me some time to get to the front door at times, especially in our old 3 story house (mistakes were made). Being able to see who was at the door, and tell them I was on my way down saved me so many missed deliveries.
