Podcasts about orcam myeye

Tại cuộc triển lãm công nghệ Vivatech ở Paris cuối tháng 5/2024, bao trùm lên hết là trí tuệ nhân tạo ( Artificial intelligence - AI ), với vô số các ứng dụng trong rất nhiều lĩnh vực. Đặc biệt trí tuệ nhân tạo được sử dụng ngày càng nhiều trong việc cải thiện cuộc sống của những người tàn tật, trong đó có người mù và khiếm thị.  Nhờ những tiến bộ của trí tuệ nhân tạo (AI), các công nghệ hỗ trợ bằng giọng nói giờ đây trở nên hiệu quả hơn bao giờ hết, giúp người mù và người khiếm thị vượt qua những trở ngại đang hạn chế họ. Chẳng hạn như công ty Israel Orcam, được thành lập năm 2010, đã phát triển một loại camera mang trên Orcam MyEye, với giá khoảng hơn 2.000 euro, gắn trên mắt kính, với ứng dụng trí tuệ nhân tạo để giúp cho người mù và người khiếm thị hiểu được các văn bản và xác định được các vật thể nhờ giọng nói mô tả những gì mà họ không nhìn thấy được.Tại Triển lãm Điện tử Tiêu dùng CES ở Las Vegas, Hoa Kỳ, đầu năm nay, công ty khởi nghiệp Lumen của Rumani đã giới thiệu một loại mắt kính có thể thay thế chó dẫn đường. Công nghệ này sử dụng các cảm biến, tai nghe để hướng dẫn người mù, người khiếm thị. Khi phát hiện một  thứ gì đó đang chặn đường, tai nghe sẽ rung ở bên phải hoặc bên trái để hướng dẫn đổi hướng. Có 6 camera và sử dụng trí tuệ nhân tạo, loại mắt kính này coi như mô phỏng các đặc điểm chính của chó dẫn đường.Bên cạnh đó còn có những trợ lý giọng nói, chẳng hạn như Siri, Google Assistant và Amazon Alexa, có thể đáp lại các lệnh thoại, cung cấp thông tin theo thời gian thực và thậm chí thực hiện các nhiệm vụ cụ thể. Do đó, đối với người khiếm thị và mù, những trợ lý giọng nói này trở thành người bạn đồng hành kỹ thuật số cho phép họ truy cập thông tin. Trong việc hỗ trợ người mù và người khiếm thị, người ta cũng sử dụng ngày càng nhiều những chatbots, tức là những chương trình trí tuệ nhân tạo được thiết kế nhằm mô phỏng lại các cuộc trò chuyện với người dùng thông qua nền tảng internet. Các chatbot đó được thiết kế đặc biệt để đáp ứng nhu cầu của người khiếm thị và người mù. Các chatbot này sử dụng giao diện giọng nói và văn bản để cho phép giao tiếp liền mạch. Họ có thể hiểu và trả lời các câu hỏi, đưa ra lời khuyên, hỗ trợ. Sử dụng trí thông minh đàm thoại, các chatbot được điều chỉnh này được cá nhân hóa và dễ tiếp cận cho những người khiếm thị và người mù.Chính là theo chiều hướng này mà một ê kíp ở vùng Paris đã phát triển một loại điện thoại với ứng dụng chatbot dành riêng  cho người mù và người khiếm thị. Điện thoại hiện được bán với giá khoảng gần 385 euro, cộng thêm tiền thuê bao mỗi tháng 12 euro.Nói chung, trí thông minh nhân tạo với chức năng đàm thoại đang cách mạng hóa khả năng tiếp cận cho người khiếm thị và người mù. Nhờ công nghệ hỗ trợ giọng nói, họ trở nên độc lập hơn và hòa nhập xã hội tốt hơn.Nhưng những sáng chế về trí thông minh nhân tạo hỗ trợ cho người mù và người khiếm thị không chỉ dừng ở đó. Có mặt tại triển lãm VivaTech cuối tháng 5/2024, công ty khởi nghiệp Biped.ai, trụ sở tại Lausanne, Thụy Sĩ, đã giới thiệu một sản phẩm mang tên NOA, một dây nịt được trang bị thiết bị định vị GPS và máy tính kết hợp với trí tuệ nhân tạo tổng hợp để phát hiện chướng ngại vật cho người mù và khiếm thị. Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ tại triển lãm Vivatech, đại diện của công ty Biped.ai, kỹ sư tin học Paul Prevel, cho biết: “Công ty của chúng tôi đã được thành lập từ 3 năm nay và chúng tôi đã bỏ ra 2 năm để nghiên cứu phát triển NOA, huy động 250 người thử nghiệm beta. Năm nay, chúng tôi bước vào giai đoạn thương mại hóa, chuẩn bị mở thị trường Hoa Kỳ, châu Âu và Úc. Sản phẩm sẽ được bán với giá 4.300 euro. Mục đích là tạo một giải pháp với giá cả dễ tiếp cận hơn.Dĩ nhiên là ở mỗi nước chúng tôi sẽ làm việc với các nhà phân phối để sản phẩm được hoàn trả một phần hay toàn bộ, tùy theo quy định của các nước. Ở Pháp, các cơ quan cấp tỉnh đặc trách về những người tàn tật sẽ hoàn trả đến 65% giá mua sản phẩm.”Nói là dây nịt nhưng thật ra NOA là một dây đai đeo trên vai, với camera góc rộng ở bên trái ngực, một máy tính nhỏ ở bên phải và một pin phía sau cổ. Nhờ trí tuệ nhân tạo, NOA xác định các mối nguy hiểm, hướng dẫn và mô tả môi trường xung quanh người sử dụng. Toàn bộ dây nịt nặng chưa tới 1 kg.Tham vọng của những người sáng lập công ty khởi nghiệp Biped là tạo ra một sự đổi mới có thể thay đổi cuộc sống của những người mù, người khiếm thị và có thể giúp họ tự khám phá những địa điểm mới, hoàn toàn an toàn và tự chủ. Ý tưởng là phát triển một “phi công phụ” lấy cảm hứng từ phương tiện tự hành, có khả năng đọc văn bản, nhận diện khuôn mặt, phát hiện các lối qua đường dành cho người đi bộ và cung cấp khả năng điều hướng khi di chuyển bên trong các tòa nhà. Công ty khởi nghiệp này đã hợp tác với viện nghiên cứu Honda. Sản phẩm cùng tên của họ tự quảng cáo là “dây nịt phát hiện các chướng ngại vật đang đến gần và cung cấp hướng dẫn GPS, tất cả trong một, kèm theo phản hồi bằng âm thanh”. Các mô hình nhận dạng đối tượng bằng thuật toán xác định chướng ngại vật (tĩnh hoặc chuyển động) và dự đoán rủi ro va chạm. Người dùng được thông báo bằng tín hiệu âm thanh qua tai nghe Bluetooth.Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ tại triển lãm Vivatech, kỹ sư tin học Paul Prevel giải thích thêm: “ NOA có 3 chức năng. Chức năng thứ nhất là dẫn đường, làm sao đưa người mù tới một điểm đến mới. Chức năng thứ hai là phát hiện các chướng ngại vật, những vật thể mà “gậy trắng”, tức là gậy trang bị cho người mù không thể phát hiện được, chẳng hạn như những vật ngang đầu hay những hố mà “gây trắng” không thể dò được. Chức năng thứ ba là vận dụng trí tuệ nhân tạo, mô tả bằng giọng nói những gì mà camera thấy được.Ứng dụng dẫn đường chủ yếu dùng thiết bị định vị GPS, nhưng trên đường đi, trí tuệ nhân tạo sẽ được sử dụng những khi phải băng qua đường, hướng dẫn người mù đến làn dành cho người đi bộ, bấm nút để chờ đèn xanh. Hệ thống sau đó sẽ hướng dẫn đi như thế nào để lúc nào cũng ngay giữa lối đi, có đông người đi không, có xe nào dừng kế bên không. Camera sẽ thu thập tất cả những thông tin ba chiều chung quanh người mù để cảnh báo là có một cái hố hay một cây cột trên đường, hay có một người đi từ phía trước đến. Khi tới điểm đến dự kiến, hệ thống sẽ hướng dẫn đến cửa vào tòa nhà, cửa có mở hay không, cầu thang nằm ở đâu.”Lý tưởng nhất là dây nịt này bổ sung cho gậy hoặc chó dẫn đường cho người mù và người khiếm thị. Giải pháp NOA cũng có thể được áp dụng cho thế giới việc làm, hỗ trợ những người mù và người khiếm thị làm công việc hàng ngày trong công ty của họ. Về lâu dài, những người đồng sáng lập Biped hy vọng công nghệ của họ thậm chí sẽ có thể giúp người dùng chạy hoặc thậm chí trượt băng. Trên toàn thế giới có hơn 300 triệu người khiếm thị và 40 triệu người bị mù hoàn toàn. Giải pháp của biped.ai có tiềm năng trở thành giải pháp cứu mạng nhiều người: bằng cách kết hợp xử lý tín hiệu và thị giác bằng máy tính tiên tiến, biped.ai có thể cung cấp thông tin chi tiết nhanh hơn tới 10 lần so với các “đối thủ” cạnh tranh.Giải pháp NOA cũng bắt đầu được ứng dụng trong hệ thống giao thông công cộng ở Thụy Sĩ. Từ tháng 6 năm nay, trên tuyến tàu điện ngầm M2 ở Lausanne, một tổ hợp gồm công ty Biped.ai, TL (Giao thông công cộng vùng Lausanne) và SME Urbagestion phát triển một giải pháp di chuyển độc đáo trên thế giới: hành trình hoàn toàn tự động đầu tiên dành cho người mù tới một điểm đến mới. Theo Maël Fabien, giám đốc và người đồng sáng lập công ty Biped.ai, dự án này "nhằm chứng minh rằng người mù có thể đến một cuộc hẹn mà không cần biết trước lộ trình”. Trên thực tế, mục tiêu là điều chỉnh phát minh này cho phù hợp với điều kiện giao thông công cộng và bên trong các tòa nhà, nơi tín hiệu GPS không đi qua được.

Im Gespräch mit OrCam sprechen wir zunächst über die OrCam Read 3, ein Lesegerät in Form eines Stiftes. Per USB-C oder WLAN kann es zu Hause mit einem Computer verbunden werden und sehbehinderten Menschen stehen unterschiedlichste Vergrößerungs- und Darstellungsformen offen. Auch ein KI-basierter Sprachassistent ist dann möglich. Wir reden aber auch über die OrCam MyEye 2.0 – kommen hier auch KI-Funktionen aus dem Internet? Und wie lange gibt es eigentlich Updates?

Seit etwa 2016 gibt es mit der OrCam eine kleine Kamera, die blinden und sehbehinderten Menschen Texte vorlesen kann und darüber hinaus weitere Funktionen wie eine Personenerkennung oder einen Barcode-Scanner bietet. 2020 kam das erste Konkurrenz-Produkt, die Envision Glasses auf den Markt. Benni hat beide Produkte ausführlich getestet und erläutert und demonstriert in seinem Beitrag die wichtigsten Unterschiede. Wie sind die beiden Geräte aufgebaut? Was kann welches Produkt konkret und was nicht? Für wen könnte was besser geeignet sein? Diese Podcast-Episode liefert Antworten und macht deutlich - es gibt mehr Unterschiede, als man denkt.

ORCAM es un pequeño dispositivo basado en inteligencia artificial, que se anexa a las gafas y le permite a quienes tengan discapacidad visual, identificar personas, objetos y hasta leer. Esta tecnología fue desarrollada por Amnon Shashua y Ziv Aviram cocreadores de la empresa israelí: ORCAM. Su primer dispositivo fue Orcam Read, un aparato que ayuda a quienes padecen de reducción visual, dislexia o fatiga al leer. Su versión 2.0 fue OrCam MyEye, un dispositivo portátil que además reconoce rostros e identifica objetos por medio de un escáner tridimensional, que procesa la información y a través de un altavoz le informa al usuario lo que tiene delante, todo controlado de manera táctil. Una versión más avanzada de ORCAM ya se puede operar completamente con comandos de voz, activando y controlando todas sus funciones y configuraciones simplemente diciendo “Hey OrCam” seguido de la acción deseada. Así es como esta tecnología israelí espera mejorar la vida de quienes tienen algún tipo de deterioro en su visión, cifra que según la OMS es de aproximadamente 2200 millones de personas en el mundo. Como parte de su estrategia para llegar a más países, Leonel Messi se convirtió en embajador del proyecto en 2020, participando en numerosos actos de donación de dispositivos a personas que lo necesitan. Esto dijo el campeón del mundo acerca de ORCAM: “ORCAM MyEye, esto es increíble, esto es magia”.

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. Today's big idea is seeing with your ears — exploring technology that uses audio to connect people with vision loss to the world around them. Dr. Cal Roberts speaks with Dr. Yonatan Wexler about the OrCam My Eye device. They explore the ideas of whether the brain can recreate a picture using audio alone, how well hearing can replace lost sight, and what are the discovery processes for using audio description technology as a substitute for vision. The Big Takeaways: Developments in technology allow for the use of audio as a substitute for vision for people with no or low vision, sending signals to the brain to create a picture in their mind's eye. The natural gesture of pointing signals the OrCam device to enable audio feedback to the wearer, the same way our selective vision helps us discriminate objects from our surroundings. The journey to the development of this device was intricate and involved, highlighting the constant evolution of this technology and future opportunities for development such as the ability for a user to save their experiences. Tweetables: “I have an idea of how the ball field is shaped, where the players are standing, and what they do. … It's not a fully-fleshed out picture, but it … helps me know what everyone is doing at any … moment.” — Karen, a blind baseball fan describing hearing a game play-by-play “A radio allows you to use your imagination. In some ways, radio is even better.” — John Sterling “It happens and you describe it and hopefully you describe it well. I hope it helps the listeners see the game.” — John Sterling, Voice of the New York Yankees “The beauty of the brain is that it can generate sight using the information from the ears.” — Dr. Wexler   Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss.

The modern world relies very heavily on sight. While podcasts have brought audio back to a primary method of communication, much of what we do is visual. Phones, despite their name, have a strong focus on visuals. Even things as simple as eating at a restaurant requires sight to be able to know the menu. But, if you have a visual impairment, it can have a major impact on your life. Fortunately, our friends at OrCam have a technological solution to the problem: OrCam MyEye.The OrCam MyEye is a small device that looks like a PowerPoint controller. But, instead of a device to control a computer, it is a small computer with a built-in camera. It attaches to your glasses, which allows it to stay focused in the same direction as your head. This allows you to use it to read aloud text in front of you. It can be done directly from the device, or it can be paired with a speaker or headphones.The OrCam MyEye is controlled using gestures. You can tap the device to read whatever is in front of you. Or, you can point at text to have it start reading there. You can use a hand gesture, similar to an orchestral conductor, to end the reading. This puts you in full control of what is being read and when.In addition to the text reading capability, it is able to do object identification. For example, it can learn and announce people using onboard facial recognition. It is also able to identify products around you, either using a pre-determined database, or by using the barcode on the product. In either case, it is able to announce that person or product just the same as it can read text.The OrCam MyEye is available now starting at $3000, or can be purchased using Sunbit starting at $150 per month.

Es ist wohl die innovativste und spannendste Hilfsmittelneuheit des Jahres 2020: Die niederländische Firma Envision hat ihr Produkt Envision Glasses vorgestelltt. Diese smarte Brille basiert auf den Google Glasses. Die Kamera-Augen unterstützen blinde und sehbehinderte Menschen im Alltag - beim Lesen von Text, finden von Gegenständen, erkennen von Farben und vielem mehr. Die Lösung ist damit eine Alternative zur schon länger verkauften OrCam MyEye. In diesem Podcast sprechen wir mit einem der allerersten Nutzer in Deutschland. Er stellt die Funktionen der Envision Glasses vor, berichtet von seinen praktischen Erfahrungen und selbstverständlich wird das Hightech-Gerätchen auch live vorgeführt. Soweit möglich, erfolgt ein Vergleich mit der OrCam MyEye 2.0.

It should be no surprise that vision is an important part of modern society. For those with impaired, limited, or no vision, getting through the day can be incredibly difficult. From reading signs and menus to identifying other people in a room, the things most of us take for granted are often unavailable. With the help of the OrCam MyEye 2, some of those capabilities can be replicated.The device is a small rectangle that attaches to a pair of glasses. Through the device, the wearer can get a lot of information about their surroundings. We got to see the device in action as it read aloud the text on a flyer in the studio. Of course, as with so many live demonstrations, it didn't work perfectly, but the CES environment is not normal life. However, what we saw was still impressive. The ability to control what is verbalized via voice controls makes it far easier to learn how to use it. In addition to the ability to read text, the MyEye 2 can also identify faces. Once taught, the device can announce verbally when someone in your close circle is in the vicinity. Obviously, knowing who is in the room with you is an important part of socializing, and one that is often lost with visual impairment. Normally, it would require you to wait for them to introduce themselves as being there.The best part of MyEye 2 is that it does not require an internet connection. Because all of the AI technology is built directly into the product, there is no need for an internet connection. This means that it will continue to work no matter where you are or whether or not you've got a viable cellular connection.For more information about the OrCam MyEye 2, check out the company's website.Interview by Marlo Anderson of The Tech Ranch.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

I'm Jeff Thompson. All in attendance at the National Federation of the Blind Convention 2019 held in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sin City. I ran into Gil Beeri from OrCam. I met up with Gil a couple of years ago, so it was really nice to meet up with him once again and talk about the MyEye 2. It's had some updates, some new features, and Gil's just ready to talk about it and let us all know the new features and what the OrCam team is up to.   Jeff Thompson: I'd really like to thank OrCam for being such a big sponsor at the convention. It's nice that they support the convention. They've been out there for four years now. OrCam's come a long ways, so thank you, OrCam.   Jeff Thompson: Their booth was right up front and it was quite busy, so I really want to thank Gil Beeri for taking the time away from the booth a little bit just to share with us all a little bit about the OrCam MyEye 2, and announcing some special partnerships with NFB and ACB and some discounts just for you. So let's head into the exhibit hall, over to the OrCam booth and talk to Gil Beeri. We hope you enjoy.   Jeff Thompson: Welcome to Blind Abilities. I'm Jeff Thompson. I'm at the NFB 2019 convention in Las Vegas, and I came up to the OrCam booth and I'm talking with Gil Beeri. How are you doing?   Gil Beeri: I'm great. How are you doing, Jeff?   Jeff Thompson: I'm doing great. Nice to see you again. It's been a couple of years.   Gil Beeri: Yeah, exactly.   Jeff Thompson: So OrCam, you've been around for a few years, why don't you tell the listeners a little bit about it?   Gil Beeri: Yeah, we were here for our fourth time already, and very proud sponsors for the NFB convention this year. We have special news for this convention this year. We signed a collaboration agreement with the National Federation of the Blind, which will, first of all, offer members of the federation a special 10% discount buying an OrCam MyEye or an OrCam MyReader through OrCam. And we also join hands with the National Federation of the Blind on seeing where development goes on assistive technology and our product in particular. So we're very excited about that. Just last year we've came up with a few updates to our new MyEye 2 device adding an app that you can use the app for basic menu set up and operating the device. We also came up with voice commands.   Jeff Thompson: I like some of the gesture bases. You just pretended to look at your watch and all of a sudden it just told you the time.   AI: The time is 9:01 AM.   Gil Beeri: Another way to get time is by using voice commands. I would double tap on the device.   Gil Beeri: Tell time.   AI: The time is 9:01 AM.   Gil Beeri: More than 20 voice commands that will make operation of the device much easier for the user and that would [inaudible] to the new Bluetooth connection and other things that came out with the MyEye 2 when we came out with it a little bit less than two years ago.   Jeff Thompson: So I could use the OrCam with my Bose frames?   Gil Beeri: Yes, you can. I actually tested that and they worked perfectly with it.   Jeff Thompson: That's great. Now this is something that someone could just be in the comfort of their own home and just point at the newspaper magazine and just have it read to them.   Gil Beeri: Exactly. The whole idea behind OrCam was to make the usage as intuitive as possible. There are a lot of man hours that are put in the design of the device to make it as easy to use as possible.   Gil Beeri: Now, using artificial intelligence is not always very easy and we understand that, especially for a person who is blind or visually impaired, it's not very easy learning about technology. So this is why we put a lot of hours in design of the comfortable and relatively easy user interface.   Jeff Thompson: One thing that's really unique about the OCR that you have, it's all done internally. It doesn't go up to the web or anything. So the privacy of what you're actually scanning is contained.   Gil Beeri: Yeah. Well this is a great question, Jeff, because privacy is an important thing today, not only in your day to day life, but also in your workplace. We know that employment is a huge challenge. Using OrCam at the workplace enables the user to read information without sending any of it up to the cloud, which then exposes that information to third parties that you do not want to have that ability. So everything is done, the whole process is done, on board on that tiny little device, which is the size of a finger basically and weighs less than an ounce.   Gil Beeri: This is one of the advantages we see for using OrCam at the workplace.   Jeff Thompson: And it just clips right onto your existing glasses?   Gil Beeri: Yeah. There's a magnetic mount. A tiny magnetic mount that connects to your glasses. Basically any frame will do. Basically it doesn't matter if it's sun glasses or regular glasses, as long as they're not those little tiny wire frames. Almost any frame you can put the mount on and the device clicks magnetically on that mount, ensuring also that it's in the right direction.   Gil Beeri: You cannot put it on the wrong direction. The camera cannot go pointing backwards. It only can only point forward because the mount won't take it because of the magnetic fields. So it won't stick.   Jeff Thompson: If someone has hearing problems, they could switch to one ear or the other?   Gil Beeri: Yes, exactly. Can go now on both sides. The old device was mounted only on the right side, but this device can go on both sides, no problem.   Jeff Thompson: So what else can they do? It can do OCR.   Gil Beeri: Well it does OCR, facial recognition. It recognizes products, recognizes barcodes, money notes, colors. Basically that's it. But you ... regarding barcodes, colors, and facial recognition, you can also program the device to recognize either your friends and loved ones, your preferred products in the grocery store, or if there's a barcode on a product that is not stored in our about million barcodes that are on the device, you can program that barcode and it will announce it on your own voice the next time you scan that barcode.   Jeff Thompson: The first time I experimented with OrCam, it was in Minnesota Convention and it said Monty. Hey, it knows you. Monty?   Gil Beeri: Yeah. Well, I think we've made a few steps forward since then. OrCam now is a device that is sold in 42 different countries all over the world and 25 different languages. By the way, the device in the US for example, comes already on board with reading capabilities in Latin Spanish and Canadian French. So you can use the device if you are a multilingual speaker, you can use that device to read in Spanish, to read in French, whatever you prefer. In other countries, we have other sets of languages. Again, 25 different languages in 42 different countries and they're all localized to that specific country, meaning that on that device you'll read the money notes of that country, the barcodes of that country.   Jeff Thompson: So that's really great. You mentioned members of the NFB do get a discount? You're also at the ACB convention and you made that announcement there too, right?   Gil Beeri: Yes. Well, both ACB members and NFB members will get that special 10% discount. Right here on the NFB convention and valid only for the convention, we have a special exclusive convention deal. So not only that you will get the 10% discount. You will also get a package of accessories from OrCam valued at $300 that we have with that.   Gil Beeri: Part of it is this tiny little thing I'm showing you here, which is a special designed charger for the MyEye device that has a belt clip on it and it's like a cradle that you put the device in it. It can sit on your belt and if the device has about one hour and 30 of consecutive work, this will add four times that time of usage.   Jeff Thompson: Oh, wow.   Gil Beeri: So you can actually hold the whole day using that cradle. You can put it up and down from your mount into this cradle and it will charge it when you're not using it.   Jeff Thompson: And that's just about the size of a pack of gum.   Gil Beeri: Yeah. That's right about it.   Jeff Thompson: Yeah, that's really neat.   Jeff Thompson: Well, Gil, thank you very much for taking the time out of your day here at the convention and sharing everything with the Blind Abilities listeners.   Gil Beeri: Thanks Jeff. It's always a pleasure and I hope the next time I see you will be less than two years.   Jeff Thompson: All right.   {Music}    Jeff Thompson: Always a great time talking to Gil. Always a great time at the OrCam booth and always a fun time at the Exhibit Hall of the NFB Convention. So, if you want to find out more about or camp, check them out on the web at O-R-C-A-M.
