Objective

"In DIGIGLASSES project a group of SMEs aims to develop a marketable digital tool for the visually impaired, which will be able to provide 3D vision for the users, corrected and customized for the special symptoms of the user’s eye disease. By this combined solution, not only the symptoms of the unique disease will be decreased, but the stereoscopic vision allows judging distances within the environment.
The members of DIGIGLASSES consortium believe that the concept is worthy and promising not only as an effective low vision aid, but also from the business point of view. The feedback from the optical and vision aid devices market validates more efforts to invest in developing this innovative technology."
