1:33 am
no but it's caused so much devastation across a stray. detail coverage. say. anything. and feel. the u.s. military strike. it's a mobile world. which calls texts apps to help make our lives easier. but not everyone's benefiting. can mobile phone apps be designed to help make a better world this challenges app developers from around the world to visit
1:34 am
communities who are missing out and then come up with an app that could help me in life. life apps is in southern africa where 9 out of 10 have a mobile phone where remote tribal communities still struggle to benefit from modern technology. modern life as a. people. they used phones though often with difficulties.
1:35 am
apart from. the hymn bush will fly from the. region is little changed. i fiercely proud of their traditional way of life but their remoteness and independence also make it very tough. so could in life really help this ancient tribe. 800. and a world away from the him is finda capital. and at a restaurant on the outskirts of town members of windows small tech community are making plans. is an entrepreneur who develops software applications for mobile
1:36 am
phones he's always up for a challenge and there are a few tougher than designing a life app to help the him. dalton's enlisted lawmaker. who is studying software engineering. is the future but i'm really just think it'll be the 1st time that they've met him but people in their homeland in northwest in namibia we are way into terrible trouble and. 800 kilometers from here. to go there we have a weak economy and the human community going to interview them on what technology to use and how they use them to what extent i don't know how or what i put myself into but. i'm up for the challenge when to do.
1:37 am
i know that we. kept telling her. coming. here to. share the fine print didn't you discover it. soon it was on to. 12th i was drive through window is open for the commercial center of cocoa that. cool cool and is the ancestral home of the him but people often here in towns a trait. they. dolton and i make meetup with ben do it i mean to him bita. as volunteer youth activist will be the gite. if you like him again i make. a quick tall full pool
1:38 am
this feels whole life is changing for the him by all the him as they are often called. most him by men and women in the town have mobile phones. that i think are right when i thank. you and i'm one of them. but i'm going to miss go bam now are. you going to. move house i'm from we got to them what i want to do to people not to go to one of the annoyed that hold the us we've got hold of them are already room full of if you're working with you out of my. body when that's going. to. make wants to know how they can help women and how often i will buy a phone i don't think they want to do that although i think that. if they
1:39 am
need something but in giving that ending up on all that i'm excited that whatever they. are old enough to get on the double when i'm a newbie anyone about will find a. little me any woman that they don't want to make and that is that true either but that one must do the things that what we. feel something. that would mean that we're good to her you we don't need a member of the getting on my guard and. that would be good and. moving on one girl obama but will get you would only one woman and i think majority of them. dolton can already see possibilities for their life at sea if we have something like that. to set you right down. may be to just be something that's going to be used cars down a wall behind the building of
1:40 am
a decorative boat but if you would like to accept it maybe. a little. higher. says huge scope to help but they are still unclear on exactly how the him but lives and how they use technology in the union. so dalton steam sets out for the formal pool to also mature a village over 200 kilometers along the dust rolled. along the way they have a chance to find out why so many him bhai literate things to think learned in.
1:41 am
this school a kind if not. on some palate. their mind that it doesn't. look . good it doesn't. because they don't want to see it when yes you did after they get money. to you. say quite how they travel. peaceful different from the city life. some just. sort of nature. they're. going to stand on its. way slowly up any. better garden and speak to so many people . you know. do you know provides a chance for ventura to share his experiences of having cattle and how him but
1:42 am
children help out with a move them in a usenet measuring up on them which meant that if they believed. on race up on the floor with me. most of my anger and it was. over you know when young oh when you take off for one week. then up on that you know if you know i wouldn't be no repeat no to conquer all over you and bring your yank up way up and you know me oh no no me i'm in on the lead. yeah. ok.
1:43 am
in this remote landscape maybe a life that could help money to the water in the away says vital for him but who lives here with their cattle. and also for another tribe the overhead in. the. bank of america but dalton in lima don't know if there's even a mobile phone signal here. time to check. that. dalton's team want to know more about how the human lives in the away says. they soon realize the burden of virtually all activities lies on the women they care for the children cook for the family help tend to the animals and even builds
1:44 am
their houses but. there is a lesson here which could be that with. getting back to. us. but if we should we are having. and the most let's begin say this was like in lines in some elephants and something you have been here. we need to watch our phones and network here everywhere to call something supposedly at us. and candid like the air you guys ended the part i don't hear you read gelman week indeed the only yeah yeah began by someone talk about scams but not like. illiteracy patchy phone signals nor smartphones it will be tough but dalton has some ideas a couple of things that came to my mind but i don't think it's final say when is
1:45 am
the need for some sort of tracking device. when is the need to communicate instantly much but because one of these network computing. actually did not make it disappear. no i think this might as it is something. like a little places that you were 200 meters i mean given the circumstances it's better than nothing. we have to work with what we have everything we spoke to a couple of people to gather information but i just feel at the moment. you probably have to. spend the 1st post. i would say we have a lot to learn from this people that the city received. over. taken by material. as you. saw
1:46 am
dalton's team drive on to the most remote him both village they can find also makes you know. thanks it's just another 5 kilometers away but they can only drive at walking pace. in cheetah they are more cattle than people. maybe helping with cattle is the best use for a mobile phone at. home owned by them when the human and when we don't in the in and in. but you. can go ahead. and do the move money. and this has been building.
1:47 am
with a good many things and be. careful of them but you know you know if you have it you will end up going on i didn't you would think over of all it would have been never you look you know. what i'm going to go to. so basically the kids don't go to school they go in a uterus but. then you know before we were overdue for yet. another poster. it was going to be you know we do with the i don't. believe it was funny you know we have we haven't yet. maybe a life app that can track cattle is what the human need. to be doing it to be when you get in the movement of the kids throughout the forest
1:48 am
you know what you basically need to do is just it's really opened their petition. and then you'll be able to see all your buddies young president when you get a bigger beginning number uses them are you moving. on with my own without you know we don't know would you try and use. their education certainly that would be the most basic food your number i'm afraid we could lead to an intimate it. pretty much you had to do. but dalton in law makes phyllis to hard working women who should have the final word. time to discover if the women can read text on their mobile. phone for me as i do the women from the community go to school. so
1:49 am
candy even read. like my never going to hear. this. question can i pretty. well known what i have and we do approve are you ready for it. you. know. they want to see you for there's been. well you know you have them many of them i mean human to human i mean one of them oh yeah bang your little. game on the way you are but you know a little bit. now you know what you're missing doing the video.
1:50 am
himbo women may have to wait days to find somebody who can read text messages for the. challenges even more daunting than expected don't have to develop a life that's both helpful and practical. they'll try and work something out back in a pool after a night of celebration. just to have the safety as good it's all about communication and connectivity we
1:51 am
fortunately have. very limited connectivity. that's one of the challenges that we faced you know we've. got. something usable and sustainable so that's one of the challenges and the challenge that we have these probably to find a champion to take this up once we develop it we're going to channel through to the rest of the community. i'm an optimistic person. back in town. still thinking about a life to track cattle but it may not be as easy as they hoped for.
1:52 am
did you. try. this. so this. so. to to do so so it was. oh. determined to come up with their app in the north so they can field test it while this deal here. we. had been up the whole night basically. 2 things were
1:53 am
a list that would linger on. from the data collection from the human or where they were looking at tracking ads for cattle there was. made based on but we know really down to some sort of mathematical ed. they can lead to count. as we develop the realist. leno conan but then released from the book and read so we came up with something that translate the. the 2 boys. the team comes up with an app that turns any text into speech. they've developed a rough prototype on a smartphone but their idea is intended to work on a simple 2 g. phone just like those they him by use. it's
1:54 am
a brain waves if illiteracy is the problem using the app to overcome illiteracy. managed to come up with a lot of money for these so how does the prototype apps work step one copy the message that she wants to understand. step to open the app. step 3 paste the message into the app. voice button to hear the message. through. to the. people. there. is not after maybe we can it can be proved to become friggin also like to get in we just if somebody gets in this is basically the end of this movie push the button and the reason this is for.
1:55 am
testing. the team drive to a nearby him. to test the i love my voice life app. in . dalton and want to get feedback from the him by women. we have listened to some of the problems that they experiencing with. s.m.s. for example. playing around with some solution for mobile that enables for example the phone to read the text to them especially when they kind of read them fully if i give this. one all say for them listen i said i think you. can have it.
1:56 am
through and i know that see a 1000000 is an s.m.s. i thought. there were no moon. yeah and ses you can read no all she has to do is to put it that i thought that's the voice. number. one and. only got one on ones when. we got on one of them you thought the not enough. time well in the hall. yeah i don't. oh. yeah i don't want. nobody ever that i want to. you know let me go. over there.
1:57 am
you. know what change do we. we basically when it come up with. the last i wish i hope we take some old guy is cool and to. give back a. dalton in law makes us still trying to perfect the i love my force app. they want to find a way of translating jimbo voices back into text. and this still looking for champion to develop their ideas. their time with the gym is evidence that technology in their right hands can haunt even the most traditional way of life
1:58 am
c. old as the right explores prominent figures of the 20th century and how why i've always influenced the course of history beginning with the giants of the struggle for civil rights the no. longer existed it was over the real who oppressed people have a look at me and continue to make roles to be defined by what i mean by that about max and more to the fuquay face to face well known jazzy of. the 21st century began with extraordinary economic growth across much of latin america . but since this whole today in 2008 there's been a political shift to the right on a continent was socialism once thrived. and a chilean politician goes on a journey to me leading leftwing ficus to understand why that politics have lost
