Oh my goodness, Assistive Technology is so expensive! π± Iβve been mainstream for over a decade β Android, Audible, iPhone, Kindle, Meta Ray-Ban, and NVDA! I just visited SightAndSound.co.uk to check the price of Envision glasses and was shocked to see how much what seemed like βvery basicβ assistive technology costs in 2024.
For example:
- Envision Glasses Home Edition: Β£2,758.80 πΈ
- OrCam MyEye Pro: Β£3,700.00 π°
Two things are very clear to me:
1οΈβ£ The revolution in Access Technology that has occurred over the past twenty years still has a LONG way to go.
2οΈβ£ Those people going on and on about the cost of Glidance ($1,049 + $20/month subscription) need to go online and have a look at what specialist assistive technology costs! π€
