The Challenge

Mobility tools still leave too much unknown.

Millions of visually impaired individuals face daily mobility challenges. Traditional assistive tools provide limited environmental awareness, while many advanced solutions remain expensive and inaccessible to those who need them most.

Our Solution

Computer vision guidance, inside a smartphone.

SUSAN Sense uses computer vision, artificial intelligence, and voice guidance to provide real-time navigation assistance through a smartphone — the device most people already carry.

Built for safer, more
independent movement.

Real-time awareness, spoken guidance, and position context work together to support everyday navigation.

Real-Time Obstacle Detection

Detects people, vehicles, chairs, stairs, and other obstacles using AI-powered computer vision — continuously and instantly.

Voice Guidance

Provides clear spoken instructions to help users navigate safely, describing what's ahead and how to avoid it.

Position Awareness

Identifies whether obstacles are on the left, center, or right of the user's path for precise directional guidance.

Continuous Monitoring

Continuously analyzes the environment and provides live navigation feedback so users always know what's around them.

Cloud-Based AI

Uses advanced AI models running through a deployed backend to deliver intelligent assistance without draining your device.

Designed around safety first.

Fast feedback, clear direction, and a familiar device experience make intelligent navigation more reachable — for everyone.
