Ep. 10: Transforming Lives Using 3D Printing with Tyler Wooten

Tyler Wooten, a Mechanical Engineering student at Texas A&M, started a non-profit called the Assistive Mapping Project. Here, students help other students by 3D printing maps of College campuses with brail patterns to help blind/visually impaired students navigate through campus. Now, you can find a map of the Texas A&M campus with brail patters at the Memorial Student Center (MSC). They are currently growing to other universities nationwide.
