Making Communication Universally Accessible
We empower people who are blind, low-vision, or neurodivergent with instant, intuitive access to nonverbal social communication.
Introducing ALEYE
Nonverbal cues you can feel.
🫢 We Often Communicate Without Words
Facial expressions and body language account for more than half of communication.
❌ Nonverbal Cues Are Often Inaccessible
For people with vision loss or intellectual disabilities, these cues can be unseen or difficult to interpret.
✨ ALEYE Enables Instant Social Insight
Know when people are smiling, waving, nodding, and more — instantly, discreetly, intuitively!
✅ ALEYE Fits into Daily Life
ALEYE integrates with your Meta Ray-Bans and other smart glasses, and is about size of a standard smart watch.
ALEYE is the first ever device designed to translate non-verbal communication cues to touch.
How ALEYE Works
(1) Detect Cues
Smart glasses pair with our custom algorithms that detect facial expressions, body language, and hand gestures.
(2) Decode Cues
Each unique cue is mapped to a distinct haptic pattern — this is a smile!
(3) Deliver Cues
Pattern play in real time (<0.25 of a second!) on the ALEYE wristband.

What ALEYE Users Are Saying
“ALEYE makes me a more responsive teacher and help me provide my students with more support than I can just by listening.”
Emily
PhD Student & Professor at UNC
“As a totally blind person, these nonverbal cues were previously unbeknownst to me, and resulted in some awkward situations where I did not know that I needed to respond. ALEYE is changing that.”
Katie
Fox Family Foundation
“When I began to feel the vibration sets and was able to interpret their meaning, it began to restore a once long-lost depth of everyday communication.”
David
Member of the blind, low-vision community
