Dotlumen is illuminating a new technology to help persons who are blind or low vision navigate the world. In this episode of NVIDIA’s AI Podcast, recorded live at the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference, host Noah Kravitz spoke with the Romanian startup’s founder and CEO, Cornel Amariei, about developing its flagship Dotlumen Glasses. Dotlumen is a member of the NVIDIA Inception program for cutting-edge startups. Equipped with sensors and powered by AI, the glasses compute a safely walkable path for persons who are blind or low vision, and offer haptic — or tactile — feedback on how to proceed via corresponding vibrations. Amariei further discusses the process and challenges of developing assistive technology and its potential for enhancing accessibility. Stay tuned for more episodes recorded live from GTC.
