See what you've been missing with SightSense. Our app is an AI-powered tool that connects visually impaired users with the world, allowing them to read text, recognize objects, get visual descriptions, and navigate complex environments with ease. Coming soon.
SightSense is endorsed by users and companies worldwide, such as:
Foundation Fighting Blindness, FFB VisionWalk, Congressional App Challenge, Los Altos Hacks VIII, Palo Alto Online, Vista Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired, Half Moon Bay City Council, and Woodside Priory
Our app is carefully designed by high school students with a drive to change the world. We aren't just creating a smartphone app; it's a whole new way to experience everything.
Low-vision, no vision, and more. Our wide variety of features are suitable for users across the entire spectrum of visual impairments. We've carefully designed each to be flexible and support your specific needs.
Scene Description paints an auditory picture of your surroundings, using multiple advanced AI systems to analyze and verbalize details about the environment, helping you visualize everything from room layouts to outdoor settings.
Lost something? We have you covered. Locate is our newest feature that allows you to find objects or features in the environment. When locating, SightSense will provide audible and haptic feedback guiding you to the location of the desired object, when detected in the frame.
Braille isn't everywhere, and we're here to fix that. Our text recognition tool effortlessly reads and converts written text into speech. From reading menus in a restaurant to navigating signage outdoors, it provides users with the independence to access written information anywhere.
SightSense automatically navigates to the websites embedded within QR codes when detected via Text Detection. In addition to the text reading aforementioned, SightSense will provide a summary of the website content for better understanding.
SightSense's real-time haptics give tactile feedback, allowing users to feel their environment through vibrations. If some text is nearby in Text mode, you'll experience haptic feedback that lets you know. If you're getting too close to a wall in Depth mode, you'll feel vibrations that get more intense as you approach.
Our app is compatible with and designed specifically for Voiceover mode, making it a sound choice for accessibility users. For manual users, our user interface is simple, intuitive, and easy to navigate. It's tailored to meet the needs of the visually impaired, and our UI elements are carefully positioned to help develop muscle memory with our app.
Our advanced built-in Voice Assistant+ offers hands-free operation and voice-guided navigation within the app.
It understands and responds to a wide range of voice commands, allowing you to navigate pages and interact with the application easier than ever before.
A new feature we've begun testing and rolling out is Directional Audio. When using headphones or earbuds in combination with the app, SightSense will provide you with panning audio cues spatially centered on the object's relative location to you. This means you'll experience stronger audio feedback in the left or right ear depending on your orientation, helping lead you to the desired element.
You don't have time to wait for a web server to respond, or a person to analyze your image for you.
That's why SightSense operates on your device, utilizing the onboard processing to ensure you have full access without relying on an internet connection. We guarantee that we can deliver a fast and functional experience in all environments, whether in remote areas or during network outages, SightSense is a reliable companion at all times.
Paywall? No thanks.
We're committed to accessibility and inclusivity, so SightSense is offered completely free of charge. We believe in breaking down barriers to technology, especially for the visually impaired community, and our app embodies this principle by being accessible to everyone without any cost.
