LUCI debuts Sandbox 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – LUCI has opened up its platform to leading developers and research partners through a new program called LUCI Sandbox. Sandbox makes the LUCI platform and developer tools available to select organizations and institutions, allowing them to use the company as a research hub to accelerate innovation. “We created LUCI to solve real problems that exist for wheelchair users now, and Sandbox is another way for our team to collaborate with likeminded peers who are committed to doing the same,” said Jered Dean, co-founder and chief technology officer of LUCI. “By providing the expertise, application programming interfaces (APIs), software development kits (SDKs), and hardware that these partners need, we can all build to users’ needs, together. Sandbox will continue to grow, expand and bring needed change over time, dramatically accelerating what’s possible for the entire industry.” LUCI recently supported at least seven different grant proposals, including proposals from the National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Administration for Community Living (ACL), to use Sandbox. The company notes that, while this type of research and developer access is common in other industries, through popular developer programs like Apple Healthkit and industry-university partnerships, Sandbox is the first program of its kind in power mobility. “We’re thrilled to launch LUCI Sandbox, but the truth is, this announcement is more about formalizing a lot of the collaborative efforts we already have in place,” said Barry Dean, LUCI co-founder and CEO. “We are a company fueled by collaboration, and we’re excited to take that company-wide commitment to the next level with this important program.”
