NOBJECTE

Next Generation Haptic Perception Solution

Blind people can easily become disoriented on the street, either while following familiar routes or exploring new places. This concept uses currently available AI technology, such as image recognition, to improve the daily lives of visually impaired people by converting visual information into haptic signals via a wearable device. NOBJECTE is fully customizable and can substitute for guide dogs in places and situations where these are not available.

JURY STATEMENT

NOBJECTE helps visually impaired people to go about their daily lives independently without conventional aids such as the white cane or guide dogs. Supported by AI, the design is individualized and learns in daily routines. The jury is convinced of the great benefit of the vibrating wearable: millions of visually impaired people, non-stigmatizing, customizable, and hands-free.

WINNER STATEMENT

We love developing technology projects that bring value to people in a clear and honest way. It is an absolute honor to be recognized in this way by the IF jury. Thanks to everyone involved in the project, especially my friend Adrià.
