Apple might have won an Oscar for Best Picture, but Google wins one for Best use of technology.
Besides Will Smith slapping comedian Chris Rock across the face for making a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head , another takeaway from last night's Academy Awards telecast was Apple's"CODA" becomingBut Google had its moment too. During the show, it advertised an app called"Look to Speak." The app, which was released in 2020, helps those with debilitating conditions, such as Lou Gehrig's Disease, communicate.
Google's 60-second ad, titled"A Look Can Say A Lot," starts by focusing on the eyes of various people including an infant."A look can be honest and true," Google says, adding that"A look can speak for you." The ad then shows the app and how it works. There are two sentences on the display, one on the left and the other on the right. Looking to the left, the phone will say"It's great to see you." Looking to the right, the phone will say,"How are you?" Again, the user determines which of the two sentences are read by the phone by moving his eyes to the left or the right.
The app is shown to a woman named Antoinette Fernandes who has speech and motor impairments due to ALS. The look on her face when she realizes that she can use the app and her eyes to communicate what she wants to say is priceless.on any Android handset running Android 9 or later.
A second video that had been released last November titled"Look To Speak" takes us through Antoinette's story. In 2019 she was diagnosed with ALS. Unable to communicate, she was feeling suicidal according to her daughter who is her caregiver. The daughter used to say letters and when she hit upon the right one, Antoinette would confirm by making a noise and this method allowed her to get her thoughts across albeit in a slow, time consuming way.
