Jerusalem-based OrCam Technologies leverages on the power of computer vision, a sub-field of Artificial Narrow Intelligence, to provide assistance to the blind, visually impaired or people with reading difficulties. The wearable device’s main feature is that it recognizes text and reads it out loud to the wearer. The company was founded in 2010 by Prof. Amnon Shashua and Mr. Ziv Aviram.
There are already over 20,000 individuals who have benefited from the OrCam MyEye artificial vision device since our initial launch. It is currently available in 19 languages and 32 countries around the world. They plan to enter the markets in Asia, we will soon launch the device in China, Japan, South Korea, and they already introduced it in India.
The Medical Futurist asked Irie Meltzer, Director of Business Development at OrCam Technologies about their wearable assistive technology and how she sees the future.
