Developer of accessible washer and dryer speaks at conference
By MAGGIE LILLIS
Michael Hudson is very attached to the washer and dryer in his home. Not
only does he use them often, but Hudson - who is blind - helped adapt the
appliances to be more accessible to his needs.
"I don't benefit from things that are only visual, I need audio," said
Hudson, who is also the director of MSU's Resource Center for Persons with
Disabilities, or RCPD. "It was tremendous help."
The washer and dyer Duet machine was an electrical engineering class project
last year, sponsored by the machines' maker, Whirlpool. The new product
looks and performs the same operations as any washer and dryer but is
complimented with an audio component.
As part of World Usability Day, which aims to raise awareness about how to
engineer technology that is more accessible, Hudson spoke at a conference in
the Union on Thursday.
