Ask Envision is a virtual assistant feature on Envision Glasses that uses GPT-4 by OpenAI to answer natural language questions about text-based content, enhancing accessibility for people with visual impairments.
Hello Hunters,
I am super excited to introduce this brand-new feature on Envision Glasses that significantly improves the ability of blind or low-vision users to access textual information around them.
Envision Glasses are AI-powered smart glasses that enable blind or low-vision users to independently perceive the visual information around them. Our suite of AI tools excels at processing visual information from images and speaking them out. With these glasses, thousands of blind and low-vision users around the world lead more independent and productive lives.
With this latest addition, tasks like reading a menu or a user manual become a breeze. They just look at a document, ask it a question as they would if they had a sighted friend with them, and just have the answer spoken right out to them.
We are excited about the use cases this could unlock, for blind and low-vision users around the world. Here are a few videos that our beta testers have sent us so far about how they use it: https://www.youtube.com/playlist...
I look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions about this. If you believe this feature or product could be useful to someone you know, please share this with them
I was one of the early testers of this feature and its works unbelievably well. Makes it really easy to understand the context and obscure details about the scanned content that would normally be difficult to grasp for low vision or a visually impaired person.
