Three smart glasses to help people who are blind or have sight loss

Using a pair of smart glasses with a camera attached, or a smartphone camera, Aira agents are able to see what a person with vision impairment sees in real-time, and then talk to them through the app so they can help the person with whatever the task is at hand. The user highly relies on the agents' service and it is paid on an expansive monthly rate. But the hand-in-hand service is more helpful than ai-based technology and requires no cost of learning.

AR is a technology that augments physical environments on a mobile device screen by overlaying them with digital content. Unlike Virtual Reality(VR) that creates an immersive virtual environment, AR is based on a footprint of a real surrounding and it only adds additional computer-generated data. An AR glass is believed that can help people with vision impairment or people that are completely blind.
