The
Challenge
2004
When TN CEO, Ling Huang, and his wife learned their son, Brian, was on the autism spectrum with severe language impairment, like parents around the world who hear these words, they were very concerned about Brian’s future.
2010
Realizing that support services were falling short in keeping up with Brian’s development, Ling, a systems engineer, began to deeply explore the issue. He discovered that inefficiencies in data collection, sharing, and implementation were hindering Brian, along with millions of others globally with autism, from reaching their full growth potential during their crucial childhood years.
2014
“What will life be like for Brian when he finishes high school?”
When Brian was entering high school, Ling asked, “What will life be like for Brian when he finishes high school”. This question led to the development of RoboCoach, the primary workhorse of TN Digital Services. TN’s successful supported ASD employment venture providing excellent-quality document digitization by workers with Autism Spectrum Disorder. To date TN employees also provide services in Data Management, Software Testing and Bodycam Redaction.
