Aurora - A privacy-first wearable for communicating social capacity

Aurora is an early-stage assistive wearable that helps people communicate social capacity without needing to explain themselves. It senses changes in voice energy patterns only (not speech or emotions) and reflects that state through a simple visual signal. All processing is local and privacy-first. Aurora is optional, consent-aware, and designed for people with fluctuating energy, burnout, or sensory overload.

Jordan Townsend -- Pleasure to say hello.

I run Townsends Designs, LLC at the moment.

I design things to help as many people as I may over the longest period possible.

Includes things like universal donor blood mass replication, emovision.net emotion reading video chat and conversion software to help my divergent minded folks--like myself, understand others facial and body languages inherently. Emoji friendly. Includes free chrome extension. Works on Google meet, and youtube.

Yesterday I designed and released LinguaLearn which teaches users over fifty languages in real-time within their browser offering a truly uniquely self designed teaching method. Releases here at midnight.
