The Accessible-AI race is on, and we are checking out everything very carefully, as the team at Paschall Power predicts some type of “digital vision,” will be happening soon, matter fact it’s been here for a while, however, newly introduced advancements can help increase perception, mobility and overall independence for the blind. Yesterday’s “Google I/O Conference,” offered continued hope for us as consumers and blind users of technology, especially as it pertains to education, careers and just “finding our stuff.”
Yes, finding our stuff, apparently with the use of #ProjectAstra, and the newly developed #AIAgent, users can point their mobile camera or other device, to get real-time and descriptive information of their immediate area; in an associated Google video, the AI Agent tells the user where their glasses were located, then the glasses appear to have a video camera attached to the frame, suggesting a new competitor to the Meda Ray-Ban glasses, which we reported on several posts back.
- Take a second and check out the below You Tube video on Gemini and the new AI Agent in action, including locating the mentioned glasses, followed by another link with additional content regarding the 2024 Google I/O Conference
