taxes the right to levy taxes and the obligation to pay them both inherent in the sovereignty of nation states and their citizens. but what happens when the power of taxation is undermined? ah, you won't pay taxation. holla, ticks starts october 21st on the w. ah, there are many gadgets that help people with disabilities leap more independent life. for example, glasses that subtitle spoken conversations in real time for deaf people. or a smart walking stick that the text obstacles with ultrasonic wave for people with low vision tech for more inclusivity beth are hey, conscious today?

ah, when you see robots acting as servers and cafes, they're typically replacing human employees. but there is a cafe in japan that thus thinks differently. the robots here enabled people with disabilities to take part in work life, but remotely from their own house. when customers talk to these little robots, they're not talking to in a i system that talking to a real person. like for me, co miyoshi the controls the robot from home. she's one of about 50 people with physical mental disabilities. working as robot operations that don't cafe in tokyo, japan. she takes customers orders through the robot and makes recommendations. the bigger robots them serve the food and drinks. the idea is to give people who can't leave their homes due to health reasons, but want to work the opportunity to do so. it's hard to like walk into,
11:18 am
you got as long as i'm alive. i want to give something back to the community by working in new york again state your body and your moon or there's me, cio. my you says he talks to his customers about everything from his health to the weather. oh you put all many good. i feel happy if i can be a part of society. he also got the book go more, you mustn't hurry. he may robots are equipped with a camera microphone and speaker allowing customers to talk directly to the operators will only through all cash that. what do you mean? customers don't really come here to see a resume? what is the minimal gordon? they come here because of the people behind the re how many is there and they will come back to see them again. i equal you who need similar? the cafe is operated by ori laboratory. the textiles up develops robots like or re him, may to combat loneliness. the technology helps break down barriers for people with disabilities don't, fabrics,

people with and without disabilities together. a 1st up to what greater inclusion. assistive technology refers to products that 8 people who, for example, can't hear or see, or who are missing a body part. the market for this kind of tech is huge because more than a 1000000000 people world wide live with some form of disability. like jessica smith from australia. she was born without a left for arm. the former paralympics swimmer is now a disability awareness advocate and relies on the help of technology. i'm not trying to hide who i am, i'm adding and sort of expanding on who i am as a person by being able to access technology that's never been available before. her high tech prosthetic limbs operates using artificial intelligence and can learn 14 different grips. this next clip of jessica smith, grocery shopping, demonstrates just how well this tech works and action. no, whoa, whoa, whoa, now you can give me

a day. so i have 3 children, a 6 year old, a 4 year old and a 2 year old. and they all the kids are very excited about it. they think it's amazing that i'm my half human hoffer, a both half human half robots, despite on prosthetic can give off that impression. the device converts electrical impulses from the over our muscles, into finger movements. a special after associates grew patterns with certain muscle movements, and users can configure it themselves at home or allow technicians to do it remotely. so we've tried to build in the a i technology which allows us to connect to the hand. anyway, basically in the world unchanged configuration on the device instantaneously, on the fly for the customer. the sensor graceless is being tested at the university of sydney in australia. it's designed to detect the slightest movements of attendance which controlled the hans, these subtle movements,
11:21 am
and then transmitted via bluetooth to a program. who taught your copper tunnel like that and move your fingers a little bit. you will see tiny, why, abrasions happening in your wrist. and this, that's how our body moves so fingers. so all the sensor, actually because those wiper ations, ah, and we use machine learning any i to make sense of those why braces to figure out which finger is moving and how much due to a medical condition. ariana shaw has limited mobility in his left hand. he's testing the sensor bracelets by playing simple computer games. his movements are interpreted into the game. it's a lot less mood and then i thought you need to use it that i 1st the i use hope we can make me of it more functional with my left hand. like especially for all computers from perspective like studying and using it all day. darn many projects around the world focused on the sense of touch at the university of bristol,
11:22 am
in the u. k. we searchers are working on simulating the different layers of human skin to allow robots to have a real human touch. and disc come in handy for making future prosthetics. we 3 d prints, that's similar structure in our artificial skin so that it can be spawned called fats in a similar way to, to human skin. but instead of adding nerve endings, we instead mounts a camera inside the sensor. we could see the cable coming from here. so that picks up that, that movement to place hilly, that those structures inside this all facial skin. so cameras are being used to simulate human touch. what a fascinating approach. cameras are also used as a tool for people who are blind or have low vision. take this gadget for example. it can be attached to glasses. either is, can turn in the dark and other given texts and either give
11:23 am
a voice command or press their finger down to have it read aloud. the a i can be trained to recognize certain products and faces to the development of these devices often involves the same technology that's used in other sectors like autonomy driving the ai technology that's used to keep autonomy. vehicles on the road is also useful for pedestrians. this by had gorgeous, helps blind, and people with low vision navigate the city, the cameras and vetted and the device detect obstacles within a 170 degree angle. warming uses with 3 d sounds i imagined like this. if an object is moving toward the user and there's the risk of a collision, by pad warns them with a sound. it's similar to parking assistant modern cars. if there's an object on your left, you'll hear the obstacle on your left hand side. to sounds indicate where the obstacle is there a different sounds depending on whether it's a car, person,
11:24 am
or bench that's in the way the developers see bite head as a supplement to a walking stick with one big advantage it wounds uses about obstacles that head level to this smart gadget has similar features, but instead it attaches to a classic walking stick. we walk, uses ultrasonic sensors and vibrates when there are obstacles nearby uses can connect the device to their phone by a bluetooth and then use the touchpad to access google maps and virtual assistance all while keeping the phone tucked away. a smart walking stick. that's cool. and for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, they're a smart glasses. they neighbor users to read conversations in real time. by converting spoken word into subtitles. diana martin is deaf. she's trying on smart glasses for the 1st time with her friend jacqueline press from x ray glass. can you
11:25 am
see anything? good? oh, let me talk to you. so this is a new way of being able to communicate and be included within within think you're a g i. d, behind this tech is one that's already well known from movies subtitling. but these augmented reality glasses converts spoken words into text and projected instantaneously. this enables spoken conversations to be more inclusive to deaf people. as the founder of deaf kids, international steve crump, explains, i might not quite catch everything, but this is given me a real timed narrative, which enables me to be informed. it lay asleep to be bold. in obe with me to make decisions because i know what is being said. voice recognition algorithms quickly converts spoken language into readable text. we're taking that audio stream from
11:26 am
the microphone on the glass as we're running it through a piece of transcription software which uses probably seen before and ability to had audio intakes of captions. what we're doing though, is then taking those captions and putting them into oak minted reality in pakistan . the up connector connects deaf people with sign language, interpreter's via video call, the interpret spoken language into sign language and sign language into speech. this helps deaf people lead more independent lives scenarios quite a while our bank interview opening an account robin, but any account hospital scenario or some emergency scenarios, way of communication as bay important of course, communication is crucial and creating a society that's more inclusive to people with disabilities and communication can happen through music to american dance, or robert wexler aims to make music accessible to all people, no matter their physical or mental capabilities. wilson, every one could dance,
11:27 am
and even the slightest movement produced to sound that was the goal, american dom sir, robert wexler, sent for himself in developing the motion. composer, it's been a minute as her alley, i believe, are all dancers is more all musicians. and that's the principle behind the motion. composer about it enables us all to experience those instincts. all people with all capabilities, mention it ala face kaiten. already back in the mid 19 seventy's, robert wexler began experimenting with motion tracking a new york. he recorded dances, movements using body sensors, and then converted the movement data into sounds. oh, that lead the foundation for the motion composer which create sounds based on people's gestures. to achieve this, a 3 d camera films, a person's movements,
11:28 am
software then converts the sequences into corresponding sounds. the system detects even the smallest motions. the motion composers used in therapeutic clinics and inclusive schools. many are moved by the ability to express themselves artistically through movement. in mice and re, most people are overcome with emotions. enjoy troy. it's not unusual to see people crying, their workshops and writers of joy in brown's workshops. asteroid as a dancer, robert wexler has often stood in the spotlight with the motion composer. he's created a stage for people who are too often overlooked. i love seeing technology act as an aide for people to better express themselves, and if it helps people with disabilities feel more secure, confident, and included in society, we've made a small step of progress. what kind of tools would you want brighten and let us
