Peripheral Vision: Ayah Bdeir
This week on Peripheral Vision, we met with CEO of LittleBits, Ayah Bdeir. "I didn't set out originally to start a company," she explained.

The Steam Controller, announced alongside SteamOS and Steam Machines this past September, aims to bridge the void between living room-compatibility and roughly 90 percent of Steam's game database. It's got clickable touchpads, but can it really serve gamers as a viable keyboard and mouse replacement? Click the link to find out.
