OrCam MyEye is a voice-activated device, meant for people who are blind or visually impaired, having the capability to attach to virtually any glasses. It can instantly read to you text from a book, smartphone screen, or any other surface, recognize faces, help you shop on your own, work more efficiently, and live a more independent life!
With its advanced optical sensors, it captures the image of your surroundings and communicates the information in an audible format, without even needing an active internet connection. The audio can be heard through a tiny speaker that rests above the wearer’s ear or through a connected Bluetooth device.
OrCam MyEye is suitable for all eye conditions and all levels of vision loss, as well as for people with reading fatigue and reading difficulties. However, it will not improve a person’s vision. Hearing-impaired individuals would not be able to benefit from the device too. OrCam MyEye also requires the user to have full control over their head and hand movements.
