Making Communication Universally Accessible
At HapWare, we empower people who are blind, low vision, deaf-blind and neurodiverse using AI and haptic technology.
Introducing ALEYE
Nonverbal cues you can feel.
We Communicate Without Speaking
Facial expressions and body language account for more than half of communication.
Nonverbal Cues Aren’t Always Accessible
Yet, for millions of people who are blind, low vision, deaf-blind or neurodiverse, these cues are inaccessible.
At HapWare, we’re changing that.
Through intuitive haptic patterns on the wrist ALEYE provides people with real-time access to nonverbal communication cues during social interactions.
Comfortable and effective
ALEYE integrates with your Meta Ray Bans and other smart glasses and is the size of watch.
ALEYE is the first ever device designed to translate non-verbal communication cues to touch.
How ALEYE Works
Detect
First, the smart glasses detect non-verbal cues – like a smile or an outstretched hand.
Decode
Next, we decode the cues by mapping each unique facial expression and gesture to a distinct haptic pattern.
Deliver
Finally, we deliver the pattern in less than a quarter of a second to your ALEYE wristband.
What ALEYE Users Are Saying
Emily
PhD Student & Professor at UNC
ALEYE makes me a more responsive teacher and help me provide my students with more support than I can just by listening.
Katie
Fox Family Foundation
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.
David
Member of the blind, low-vision community
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.
