Aira

Aira develops transformative remote assistive technology that connects the blind with a network of certified agents via an augmented reality dashboard that allows agents to see what the blind person sees in real time. Agents, serving as visual interpreters for the blind, help users accomplish a wide range of daily tasks and activities - from navigating busy streets to recognizing faces and literally traveling the world. There are an estimated 20 million blind and low-vision people in the United States, according to the American Foundation for the Blind. Aira's goal is to develop leading technology and services that help remove remaining barriers for the visually impaired, expanding their possibilities to live with greater confidence and independence. www.facebook.com/aira.io/ www.twitter.com/airaio www.aira.io
