Dotlumen CEO Cornel Amariei recently discussed the innovative assistive technology for the visually impaired developed by his company during an episode of NVIDIA’s AI Podcast. The flagship product, Dotlumen Glasses, is equipped with sensors and AI technology to help visually impaired individuals navigate the world by computing a safe path and providing tactile feedback through vibrations.

During the podcast, Amariei explained, "We compute a safely walkable path for visually impaired individuals and offer haptic feedback on how to proceed via corresponding vibrations." He also touched on the challenges faced in developing such technology and its potential for enhancing accessibility.

The discussion with host Noah Kravitz covered various aspects of the technology, with time stamps highlighting key points such as the background of the glasses, user experience, how the glasses sense the physical world to compute a walkable path, the hardest part of the development process, expected release and availability of the glasses, technical breakthrough moments, and other assistive technologies to look out for.

Dotlumen is a member of the NVIDIA Inception program, which supports cutting-edge startups in their technological advancements. The podcast episode was recorded live at the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference.

Listeners can expect more insightful episodes recorded live from GTC in the future, as the AI Podcast continues to explore and showcase advancements in artificial intelligence and assistive technologies.
