Company profile
Lighthouse Tech SA
LighthouseTech has developed a wearable and fashionable smart eyewear frame for the safe mobility of blind and visually impaired people. While the regular white cane offers the best solution for detecting obstacles on the ground, it cannot effectively protect the users from collisions with obstacles above the waist and around the head area. Fear of collisions and reliance on others, impact their choices, resulting in negative societal behaviour, less movement and lowe life expectancy. The costs of head injuries in blind people are massively higher than those for normal sight patients. Lighthouse Tech solves all these issues, with an elegant, sporty and socially accepted solution.
