Tongo

Tongo is the world's 1st tongue-based operating system, enabling users to control digital devices with their tongue - without relying on their hands. Tens of millions of people worldwide are living with SCI, stroke, neurological disorders & a wide variety of other conditions which result in limited control over their fingers & hands, making it difficult to perform everyday actions, and locking them out of the digital world. Tongo can change their lives. Founded by award winning inventor and TED speaker Matan Berkowitz and bio-medical engineer Tal Parnass, Tongo's patent-pending Smart Brace wirelessly control smartphones, computers, wheelchairs & smart homes. Before coming out of stealth mode, Tongo was funded by the Israeli Innovation Authority, supported by IBM & Hadassah Hospital, won awards from Prize 4 Life ALS Foundation & the MedTech Raanana Accelerator - then finally unveiled at the Google HQ in both NYC & Mountain View. Pilots, user tests & fundraising are currently underway, as we work toward bringing this new way of interaction to those who need it. Find out more at http://tongo.tech Reach out at contact@tongo.tech
