    Mr. Oded Ben Dov, CEO of Sesame Enable, a touch-free smartphone and tablet, spoke at our panel “The Technology Revolution: Innovating for a Better Quality of Life for People with Disabilities”, co-hosted by the Permanent Mission of Germany to the UN and Beit Issie Shapiro.​

    Sesame Enable uses computer vision technology to allow users to access any app by using head movements.
    Mr. Oded Ben Dov: 

    “I’d like to share the story of sesame’s inception to you. I was presenting a video game on TV that was using head gestures. I got a phone call from someone who saw the TV show who said: “Hello my name is Giora, I can’t move my hands or legs, can you make me a smart phone I can use? Today he is my partner and co-founder of sesame. “
