Amaya's Flashlight

3D Motion


We believe in people and causes that make our world better. Students of colour are getting flagged to their teachers because testing software can’t see them. Mozilla Foundation approached us to help tell Amaya’s story of encountering software that failed to recognize her because of her skin tone. Testing and Recognition Software that is essential for students across the world to use for tests and take classes. Did you know some facial detection testing software that schools use fail to recognize non-white skin tones faces over half the time?
