AI Smart White Cane for the Visually Impaired
At the 68th United Nations Civil Society Conference in Salt Lake City, USA, the Australian team proudly presented their award-winning AI Smart White Cane, which earned the Creative AI Robot Award at IYRC 2019. This innovative device, designed for people with vision impairments, combines a text reader and object detector within a sleek, cane-like design. It not only identifies objects but also reads non-braille books aloud, providing essential support in daily activities. Developed to create a more inclusive world, the AI Smart White Cane represents a significant advancement in accessibility and independence for the visually impaired. We are honored to showcase this life-changing technology on an international stage, symbolizing hope and empowerment for those navigating the world without sight.
