Wearable Technology for the Visually Impaired

DavidJa

We are conducting market research for a product. Our aim is to assist visually impaired people in their daily lives around their households.

The premise of my product is a pair of glasses with cameras embedded in the frame that will be able to recognise when you have put an object down such as a phone. If you have forgotten where you have placed the phone, you can simply say "Glasses, direct me to my phone", then the glasses will audibly guide you to your phone.

4. Would a feature such as reading text off items in your hand be beneficial?

Please answer from one of the following: strongly disagree, disagree, neutral, agree, strongly agree
