Tactile Surfaces for Sensing Services
EyeLight is developing a wearable product that provides spatial information through hearing and touch in order to compensate for the visual gap of blind and partially sighted people and offer them independence in their surroundings. The system is based on inputs from a wearable 3D camera that captures the user's surroundings in real time. After the analysis, the user gets vocal and tactile outputs. With a Bluetooth earpiece based on bone-conduction technology, the solution transfers instructions and essential information to the users, such as traffic light status and GPS guidelines. In addition, through EyeLight's smartphone-sized tactile surface, the users get a physical 3D illustration of their surroundings. With this illustration, they can touch, feel, and understand their dynamic surroundings in real time. The technology provides users with information so they can navigate independently in both indoor and outdoor environments.
