SeeWay

Real-time navigation guidance for the visually impaired.

SeeWay uses on-device AI to detect hazards, measure how far away they are, and speak clear directions — so you can move through the world with more confidence.

How it works

SeeWay runs entirely on your phone — no internet connection required.

01

Detect

The camera identifies obstacles and hazards in view, frame by frame.

02

Measure

It estimates the distance to each object and tracks whether it's getting closer.

03

Decide

It judges which objects are in your path and actually matter to your safety.

04

Speak

It announces the hazard, its direction, and its distance out loud.

Example spoken guidance
  • "Stairs ahead, 2 meters."
  • "Person on your left, 3 meters."
  • "Pole on your right, 1 meter."
  • "Stop. Car 1 meter ahead."

What it detects

SeeWay focuses only on what affects your path — not everything in the scene.

Hazards

  • Stairs
  • Curbs
  • Potholes
  • Puddles

Moving obstacles

  • People
  • Cars
  • Bicycles
  • Scooters

Navigation context

  • Traffic lights
  • Pedestrian crossings
  • Crossing signs
  • Doors and poles

Built for real use

Three principles guide every design decision.

Works offline

All detection and guidance happens on the device. SeeWay keeps working in elevators, basements, and areas with no signal.

Fast enough to matter

Guidance is delivered in real time. There is no round trip to a server, so alerts arrive before a hazard becomes a problem.

Hands-free option

SeeWay works with the phone in hand, or with compatible smart glasses — keeping both hands free for a cane or balance.

Developed in partnership

SeeWay is built in collaboration with the people it serves.

“The SeeWay team has successfully developed an accessible mobile application tailored to the unique needs and safety requirements of visually impaired individuals.”
