LC Technologies has been developing eye-gaze communication technology since 1989, originally based on NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory research. The EyeGaze Edge is a self-contained portable device that houses the camera, processor, and display in a single unit requiring no separate computer.
An infrared camera samples the user's eye position 60 times per second to determine gaze direction with high precision. Users access symbol communication boards, a full keyboard, pre-stored phrases, phone dialling, and environmental controls. Integration with the companion Ability Drive app also enables hands-free power wheelchair control through gaze.
People with severe motor disabilities who cannot use touch or traditional input — primarily individuals with ALS, locked-in syndrome, high-level spinal cord injury, brainstem stroke, or advanced muscular dystrophy. Best suited to adults and older teenagers, particularly those with acquired or progressive conditions.
The Urban Xplorer is a lightweight, adjustable folding white cane made from aerospace aluminium, designed for blind and low-vision users navigating city environments. It comes in four sizes (Small through X-Large) and features a redesigned dome tip, hardened aluminium joints, and a foam grip. The cane is built to handle common urban obstacles such as cobblestones, sewer grates, and uneven sidewalks.
Awarewolf
TAMI is a wearable assistive device designed for blind and vision-impaired users that integrates obstacle detection technology into a modern glasses frame. It uses haptic vibrations to alert wearers to upper-body-level obstacles that a white cane cannot detect. The device aims to increase independent mobility and confidence during travel.
Lighthouse Tech
The Awarewolf All Terrain Cane is a titanium folding mobility cane designed for blind and low-vision hikers navigating rugged outdoor terrain. It features an adjustable foam grip handle, a rolling ball tip, and a reinforced stainless-steel folding joint capable of bearing the user's weight. The cane retains the familiar form factor of a traditional red-and-white mobility cane while providing enhanced stability on uneven ground.
