🤖👁️ BlindSight

BlindSight is an artificial intelligence-driven device to convert input from the environment into audio or vibrotactile cues, assisting visually impaired persons. It is supposed, in effect, to provide sight in another way, different from the ability of seeing, for better mobility and world interaction without relying on eyesight. This is a tool built upon advanced models of machine learning that process real-time input of a visual nature and translate it into meaningful cues. With BlindSight, one can convert visual barriers into audio or haptic cues, opening up a whole new world of possibilities in the matter of independent living. These are cases related to vision loss.

Disruptive AI Tools for Vision Restoration

Artificial Intelligence has already begun making waves with disrupting solutions to restore vision or assistance to the blind. Neuralink is working on brain-machine interfaces that would bypass damaged optic nerves and hence are likely to enable the restoration of vision by connecting directly to the brain. Then there is eSight, an AI-powered wearable that enhances sight by processing and displaying real-time images to those with partial loss of vision. Even wearable devices, like Seeing AI, which narrates to the user about the visual environment, show how much AI has come along in attempting to make accessibility accommodating for the blind. These tools make daily tasks, navigation, and even communication more feasible for people living with visual impairments.
