About Me
- Name: Sushant Bhatia

I work at CUbiC, the Center for Ubiquitous Computing at ASU. We are developing applications and devices for individuals who are blind. I personally am in charge of developing the iCare BookReader. This device will allow individuals who are blind to have print material read to them. The interface is intuitive and accessible. The process is much faster than using a scanner and our BookReader is quite feature rich. On a personal note, I love coding especially in .Net and C#.
My blog is about coding in .Net and about my interests in general. I love to read, esp Discworld novels by Terry Prattchet. I will post items about work, school, cool stuff and ideas for projects I have. If your ever interested in any of them, let me know as I would love to work on some of them.

Ong-Bak
I watched this movie last night. Its quite an interesting story. While at some points you are left wondering how the main characters know these other characters, on the whole its quite nice. And the best part is that when you see an intense martial arts sequence, you'll most likely see it again in action replay from a different angle. The martial arts they use in the film is Muay Thai. Its quite deadly but these guys seem to handle it with no worries. Apparently all stunts are done with the people, no stunt doubles, no cgi graphics. Its all them. So as a spoiler, when you see the main character, Ting, kick someone in the chest, they are being kicked alright! The action sequences at some points made me cringe. It can't be explained. You have to see it to know what I'm talking about.
So go see it!
