AiSee uses a cloud-based artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze photos and identify objects in the environment.
Researchers from the School of Informatics at the National University of Singapore have unveiled a new wearable device developed to alleviate the daily challenges faced by the visually impaired. Called “AiSee“, the device is equipped with artificial intelligence technology and aims to help visually impaired people recognize objects in their environment.
AiSee is a project that was launched in 2018 and has been in development for five years. The device has a design similar to a traditional set of headphones and can be used with a band that attaches to the back of the neck. One earpiece has a 13-megapixel camera, while the other has a touch panel on the outer surface. The camera captures the user’s field of view and takes photos of surrounding objects, while the touch panel allows users to interact with the device.
AiSee uses a cloud-based artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze photos and identify objects in the environment. It also allows users to ask questions about objects, helping them learn more about them.
One of the features of this wearable device is its use of bone conduction technology. This allows users to be aware of their surroundings while receiving environmental sounds. This feature is very important for safety and increases the independence of visually impaired people.
