The new program will also see the debut of the Mouser Innovation Lab™, where Imahara and special guests will build several cutting-edge projects powered by the newest products and technologies from Mouser’s manufacturer partners. In the first project Mouser will team up with Marvel to build Super Hero technology straight from the movie Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War — including real-life working versions of Captain America’s shield and Iron Man’s gauntlet.

    Performing Disability. Dance. Artistry. PAGE 2 ACCESSIBILITY This document has been designed with a number of features to optimize accessibility for low-vision scenarios and electronic screen readers: √ Digital Version: Alt text metadata has been added to describe all charts and images. √ Digital Version: Alt text has also been duplicated as actual text captions for screen readers that do not read metadata and instead read what is visually seen on the screen. (Note: This will result in redundancy for those using advanced screen readers, which read both.) √ Digital Version: The layout has been designed continuously and free of complex layouts in order to maintain a simple and consistent body flow for screen readers. √ Digital Version: Page numbers are tagged to be ignored by screen readers so as to not interrupt information flow (and at the top of the page for other screen readers). √ Headlines and body introductions are set at 18 points, which is considered large print by the American Printing House for the Blind (APH). √ Body text is set at 14 points, which is considered enlarged by the APH. √ Fine print and labels are set in heavier weights to increase readability. √ High contrast has been maintained by using black body text. √ Ample white space has been applied (to page margins and line spacing) to make pages more readable by providing contrast to the print and creating luminance around the text.
