It All Started in the Cafeteria

Darryl Adams’ mission to make a more accessible PC started with an epiphany in the Intel cafeteria in 2007. Adams was meeting his colleague, to discuss a new passion project: a device that would scan printed text and read it out loud for people with severe dyslexia, like his colleague, or visual impairment, like Adams.

Fast forward to today, Darryl Adams is the Director of the Intel Accessibility Office.
