This Windows 10 project is the result of years of hard work and dedication coming from Microsoft’s’ Enable Group. They collaborated with members of the ALS Community. This includes people with severe speech and mobility disabilities, as well as their families, caregivers, clinicians, and non-profit partners, in order to get a better understanding of how they experience human connections and expressions.
Expressive Pixels promotes ease of communication
The beginnings of this platform aren’t related to hardware or software concepts. Instead, the Enable team launched an app based on a set of values that revolve around deep empathy and ease of communication. Bernice You, the General Manager of Strategy and Projects in Small, Medium & Corporate Business at Microsoft, as part of the Expressive Pixels project team, declares: Expressive Pixels is designed for amateur enthusiasts and computer savvy programmers alike. The only requirement is the will to build new animated visualizations with ease. More specifically, those who are eager to try out the platform shouldn’t worry about later programming their creation on small devices. That’s what the app does from the very start. Therefore, Microsoft’s Expressive Pixels provides an inspiring experience for strong and real connections between all humans. For those who are interested, you may download the Microsoft Expressive app for free from the Microsoft Store.
