cyclops Eye-wear aid for the visually impaired
Current visual aids can be clunky, obstrusive, or require extensive care and training
Eliminate white canes and seeing dogs to give the visually impaired independence
Bees have 3 eyes on the top of their head that detect light and motion to help them “see� in the dark hive.
How can we apply this to an aid for the visually impaired?
Honeycomb texture mimics aesthetics of bee eyes Faceted surfaces provide unique texture
3D camera analyzes surroundings
Clip on function
Add onto existing frames
USB charger Inside texture expands and contracts to alert user

Bracelets receive signal from glasses and alert user of any danger.
