Beacon

Explore Boldly,
Move Freely

Beacon transforms the navigation experience for the visually impaired. Navigate the world safely and independently—it’s all in one app.

Introducing Beacon, AI-powered navigation for the visually impaired.

An Integrated Experience

The next-generation of moving freely and exploring the world.
Packaged in one single app.

Navigation tools are either expensive or lack fundamental features.

My white cane can’t tell me about the traffic conditions. And a guide dog is too expensive to maintain. Smart canes? How much do they cost?

There is a lack of navigation apps for the visually impaired.

Most apps available are for recognition, not navigation. Even the available apps often require pairing with additional hardware.

Introducing Beacon, a better solution for all navigation needs.

Beacon integrates all fundamental features needed for safe, independent navigation in one single AI-powered app. There’s no need for additional hardware or training.

Features

Smart and powerful tools at your disposal.

🗺️

Navigate

Turn-by-turn GPS navigation, but tailored to the needs of visually impaired users. Audio instructions over intersections, path orientation, traffic light recognition, and more.

🔎

Explore

Engage with the world. Detect obstacles and traffic lights. Identify text and objects. Read out the denomination on currency bills. Know who it is that’s smiling at you.

🧵

Smart Interaction

Smart contextual awareness makes it easier. Simply rise your phone to Explore. At an intersection, Beacon automatically prompts you to use intersection guidance. When in front of stairs, Beacon starts guiding you step by step immediately.

Beacon is designed with the interaction needs of the visually impaired in mind. And it includes smart features that remove the need for extra training—it simply works.
