Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

This Speak & Spell simulator: https://sha.nnoncarey.com/

The only one I've found that's as accurate is the emulated version at https://archive.org/details/hh_snspell But mine also has two expansion modules to choose from :)

I'd love to see a piece of hardware like this that you could reprogram easily; or the spin-and-say or whatever it was.
