RightHear
The RightHear app is an orientation solution for the visually impaired which offers a sophisticated and dignified wayfinding system, improving maneuverability in indoor and outdoor spaces via the simple use of a smartphone.
Orientation solutions can have a wider reach providing support for people with cognitive disabilities or agoraphobia (anxiety in unfamiliar places) who also face challenges.
Designed to broaden personal independence, public and private space accessibility and expand the customer bases of businesses which boast its detailed and advanced sensor system, the RightHear app has been the solution of choice by over eight hundred venues since its launch in March 2016 and continues to expand as accessibility awareness in our society increases.
