Also in the news, a visually impaired woman named Danelle Umstead was the first blind person to appear on Dancing with the Stars. And finally, Face Book has announced they are working on a process to detect text in images and Memes.

Next up, Tim interviews Steven Scott from the RNIB. Steven talks about his recent experience with driverless vehicles. Then Tim and Steven talk about how autonomous vehicles may one day affect people who are blind and visually impaired.

In this weeks T3, Tim tells you about his five favorite new features available in Apple’s new mobile operating system, iOS 12.
