Uhambo lwe Ukuqina
Indaba yokuqina, inhloso, kanye noshintsho ngobuchwepheshe.
“Ukuzimela akukona mayelana nokungadingi usizo, kodwa injabulo yokwenza into obungakaze ucabange ukuthi ungayenza”
- U-Arthur Sendas, umsunguli we-See U App
Indaba Engemuva Bona U
U-Arthur Sendas wazalelwa e-Arapiraca, emaphandleni ase-Alagoas, ne-aromatopsia - isimo esibangela ukungaboni kahle kwemibala, ukubona kancane, nokuhlaselwa yikhanda okungase kumenze abone izimo ezilufifi izinsuku ezimbalwa. "Angikwazi ukubona ukujula; kunjengokungathi yonke into yayiyi-2D. Uma kukhona umgodi phakathi nomgwaqo, ngeke ngiwubone, "kuchaza u-Arthur.
Ukukhula kwakhe kwakunzima. Indodana kathisha kanye nochwepheshe wezolimo, u-Arthur wakhulela emkhayeni osezingeni eliphakathi kwaze kwaba yilapho ukulutheka kukayise otshwaleni nokugembula kuthathe konke. Ngeminyaka engu-13 lo mndeni walahlekelwa yindlu nezimoto wacwila ezikweletini, wathuthela endaweni engenazicabha nokhonkolo, amanzi ayeyindlala nemvula yacwilisa imibhede.
Futhi kwakuneminyaka engu-13 lapho u-Arthur eqala khona ibhizinisi lakhe lokuqala: ukuthengisa ama-CD edolobheni lase-Arapiraca ukuze akhokhele isikole, i-inthanethi, nokusiza ekhaya. Ikhompyutha nezincwadi ezisele empilweni yakhe yakudala zaba isiphephelo sakhe - futhi kulapho azifundise khona ukuhlela.
Kamuva, phakathi neziqu zakhe zobuchwepheshe, waguqula leyo ntshisekelo yaba yinhloso: iphrojekthi yakhe yokugcina kwakuwumdlalo wabantu abayizimpumputhe, odlalwa ngemiyalo yezwi nezimpawu zomsindo. Lokho kwatshala imbewu yalokho okwakuzoba i-See U App.
Ngo-2009, u-Arthur wahlangana noSérgio Gomes Júnior, owayefunda naye ekilasini owayenesifo esiwohlokayo futhi wayazi ukuthi uzophuphutheka. Ngosuku lokuqala lwekilasi, uJúnior wathi ukhethe leso sifundo ukuze ngelinye ilanga akhe isixazululo esizoba amehlo akhe. Ngalolo suku, laba ababili baba abangane abakhulu - ngesithembiso sokwakha lawo mehlo ndawonye.
Ngo-2013, ngokufika kwe-Google Glass, u-Arthur wacabanga izibuko ezikwazi ukubona izithiyo endleleni. Eceleni kuka-Júnior kanye no-Jaqueline Sendas - unjiniyela, intombi yakhe futhi namuhla umkakhe - wenza i-prototype futhi wangenela lo msebenzi emqhudelwaneni wokuqala e-Portugal.
Ukwamukelwa kwangimangaza. "Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi ngizokwamukelwa. Ngiphuma emaphandleni ase-Alagoas, emndenini ozithobe kakhulu, ngakho kwazizwa kukude kakhulu kimi." Ngaphandle kwezindlela zokuhamba, abazange bawuhambele umcimbi, kodwa ukuqinisekiswa kwabenza baqhubeka. Izibuko zashintsha zaba imigexo, amasongo futhi, ekugcineni, ibheji elixhunywe kuhlelo lokusebenza - kuyilapho u-Júnior elahlekelwa ukubona futhi ukuphuthuma kwakhula.
Konke kwashintsha ngo-2019, lapho umama ka-Arthur eshona amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. "Ngaqala ukuzindla kakhulu ngalokho engangikwenza nesizathu sezinto." Ubhubhane olwalandela lwaletha isikhathi sokugxila ngokuphelele kuphrojekthi.
Kwabe sekufika isicelo esashintsha yonke into. Emcimbini wosuku lokuzalwa luka-Edu, umfana oyimpumputhe kanye nendodana yomngane wakhe, ingane yenza isifiso sayo: ukuhamba ngaphandle kwenduku futhi ibone umhlaba. "Kungani umalume uJúnior kuphela engakwenza?"
Leyo kwakuyinkomba ababeyidinga: ukuguqula indaba yezimpilo zabo ibe umkhiqizo okwazi ukuguqula izimpilo zezigidi. Ngo-2022, laba bobathathu bashiya imisebenzi futhi basungula ngokusemthethweni i-See U App. Babambe iqhaza ohlelweni lwe-Startup Nordeste (Sebrae), ngokuqeqeshwa kanye noxhaso lwezinyanga eziyisi-6, kanye noxhaso oluvikelekile lwamafu oluvela ku-Google, Microsoft kanye ne-AWS.
Ngo-Okthoba 2023, kwaqaliswa uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-See U. Ngayo leyo nyanga, iqembu labhekana nenhlekelele enkulu: USérgio Gomes Júnior washona, isisulu se-Becker muscular dystrophy. "Kwakunzima kakhulu. Ubengaphezu komlingani, wayengumngane."
Ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokuba adlule, uJúnior wavalelisa: "Senze into emangalisayo, akunjalo? Ngizoqhubeka ngiphila kuwe nase-See U App. Qhubeka, ungalokothi ume kuze kube yilapho zonke izimpumputhe emhlabeni sezibona." Umsebenzi wacishe waphela lapho, kodwa u-Arthur noJaqueline banquma ukuhlonipha leso sithembiso.
Ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, u-Arthur watholakala nomdlavuza womphimbo. Waphelelwa yizwi, futhi odokotela babengathembisi ukuthi uzolulama. Wahlala cishe inyanga equlekile; ukubuya kwakhe kwakubhekwa njengesimangaliso ngempela.
Ngesikhathi engekho, inkampani yacishe yawa: abasebenzi bahamba futhi uhlelo lokusebenza lwayeka ukubuyekezwa. Kodwa ukufinyelela kwamahhala kwagcinelwa abasebenzisi ababhalisiwe, futhi i-Google izibophezele ekukhokheleni izindleko zeseva.
Ngo-2024, u-Arthur no-Jaqueline bakhe kabusha yonke into kusukela ekuqaleni futhi bavotela imodeli: kusukela ku-hardware (ibheji) ukuya kusofthiwe ehlanzekile, esebenza kunoma iyiphi i-smartphone. I-Echolocation ihumusha izithiyo zibe imisindo yendawo, njenge "sonar synthetic"; ubuhlakani bokwenziwa bufunda izimpawu nezincwadi, achaze izinto abuye aphakamise nemizila; kanye nokungokoqobo okubonakalayo kuvumela abasebenzisi ukuthi bazilolonge izindlela ngaphambi kokuhamba ngazo emhlabeni wangempela.
Ngo-2025, i-See U App yaqashelwa nge-eAwards Brasil, evela ku-NTT DATA Foundation - owawina phakathi kwamaphrojekthi angu-256, wazuza indawo kumanqamu womhlaba. Namuhla, kunabasebenzisi abangaphezu kuka-130,000, futhi umsebenzi uyaqhubeka.
"Igama elichaza i-See U App liwukuzimela. Futhi ukuzimela akukhona ukudinga usizo—wonke umuntu udinga usizo. Kumayelana nenjabulo yokwenza into obungakaze ucabange ukuthi ungayenza."
