According to a recent study，there are about 70，000 blind children in Indonesia．Among them，60 percent were not born blind．Iyehezkiel Parudani is one of them，who lost his eyesight by accident at age six．He now teaches English to blind students at the Pajajaran Special SchooL Iyehezkiel Parudani says learning English can help blind people feel better about themselves．"By learning English，they can be an English teacher，a translator，and a tour guide．"Students read using Braille （盲文）．To write，they use special tools，too．

Iyehezkiel Parudani says blind people should not let their physical disability influence their dreams．In 2008，he got a chance to study at the University of Texas．Two years later，he got a master's degree in course development there．

"In the US，if I go to the university to study，everything is available﹣like e﹣books，Braille books．Here in Indonesia，you know，it's difficult to find a reference book in e﹣book or in Braille．We have to make it ourselves．In the US，I can move wherever I want because everything designed is really accessible for people with blindness．"

Eha Lestari，one of his star students，says learning English has changed her life．She has already traveled to the US with the help of an Indonesia﹣U．S．program．"I study English because I love English very much．I want to be a translator because I want to go to the other countries and then I want to meet some people from around the world．"

Like her classmates，Eha loves to sing．Here，music is part of daily life．Even the students who do not study English can sing some American pop songs，such as Stand By Me，"Stand by me．Please stand，stand by me．Stand by me…"

Iyehezkiel Parudani says the song has special meaning to the students．"In our life，we need other persons．You have to stand by me．Without you standing by me，I'm meaningless．"

A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software （识别系统） that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school，or that a package has been taken to their home．It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home．

Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo．

"The common security （安全） cameras at present are not that smart．So，they can tell you if something is moving but they don't necessarily know if it's a human being or，ah，if it's your kids﹣﹣they don't know the difference，so they will warn you all the time．"

When family members enter a home，the new camera"recognizes"（识别 ） them and sends information to the owner's smartphone．The owner can choose to see the video then or later．But if an unknown person enters a home，the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owner's smartphone．

That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Darrmen．He lives in Paris．

"On a Friday I was at work，atending a big monthly meeting when my phone warned．At first I told myself'Oh，it must be a mistake，maybe I have to set the system again．'﹣but the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize．"

He watched the video and was very surprised by what he saw．

"I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on．I was watching it live on video．So I felt totaly unbelievable，frozen．I asked a workmate to take me back home as fast as possible and I called the police on the way．"
