Eyes is our flagship iOS application that revolutionizes navigation for visually impaired individuals. Using Apple's built-in depth sensors, the app provides an extra layer of awareness beyond traditional white canes, significantly reducing the risk of collisions with overhead or elevated objects. ## How It Works The Eyes app leverages advanced computer vision technology to detect obstacles at different heights and distances. Through real-time audio feedback, users receive immediate information about their surroundings, enabling safer and more confident navigation. ### Key Features - Depth Sensor Integration: Utilizes Apple's LiDAR and TrueDepth cameras for precise obstacle detection - Real-time Audio Feedback: Provides immediate audio cues about obstacles and their locations - Multiple Detection Modes: Adapts to different environments and user preferences - Accessibility First: Designed with input from visually impaired users and accessibility experts ## Impact and Results Since its launch, Eyes has helped over 500 users worldwide navigate more safely and independently. The app has received positive feedback for its intuitive design and reliable performance in real-world scenarios. ## Open Source Development Eyes is developed as an open source project, with our complete codebase available on GitHub at https://github.com/hefestru/eyes-ios. We believe in the power of community-driven development and transparency. ### Our Open Source Goals - Community Collaboration: We encourage developers worldwide to contribute to Eyes, suggest improvements, and help us build better assistive technology - Code Transparency: Our open source approach ensures 100% transparency regarding security, allowing the community to review and audit our code - Continuous Improvement: By opening our development process, we can leverage the collective expertise of developers globally to enhance the app's functionality and reliability - Educational Value: The codebase serves as a learning resource for developers interested in accessibility technology and computer vision applications ## Future Development We're continuously improving Eyes based on user feedback, technological advances, and community contributions.
