Make yourself comfortable because this is two weeks worth of AT News (and not all of it even!)…We’ve got stylized emergency alert necklaces, some 3D printed body parts, some cool Google Glass stuff going on, a braille phone, and way more. And remember, you can read all the latest news at MDTAP’s twitter account, @MDTAP. Enjoy.<\/p>\n
