Visually impaired people have difficulty using traditional signage and therefore cannot be autonomous in unfamiliar environments.
Visually impaired users can use NaviLens codes, as they do not need to know precisely where they are placed.
Just scan with your mobile camera and get the necessary information contextualized.

Reading markers with NaviLens is almost instantaneous.
Capable of reading the labels from long distances, depending on the size of the marker.
No need for focusing, which is essential for people with visual impairments.
Navilens algorithm detects the tags when the user is walking or in motion while the cell phone is pointed up.
Navilens accurately detects the distance between the user and the tags. In addition, NaviLens provides the relative angle of the user with respect to the tag.
It detects multiple tags simultaneously, efficiently communicating them to the user
NaviLens code marker at Jay St platformIn this station, over 100 NaviLens codes:
(1) Help the visually-impaired users to be more independent in unknow spaces,
(2) Guide all users indoors through virtual arrows in a very innovative Augmented Reality (AR) experience, without GPS or Bluetooth,
(3) Offer real-time train arrivals information scanning any NaviLens code,
(4) And all of these features in 34 languages, breaking language barriers of all subway users.
It's a revolution for indoor navigation where it's not possible to use GPS or other computer-vision methods.
NaviLens code at Jay St MetroTech Station entrance.
Audible information for visually-impaired users scanning the code far away.
Augmented reality technology based on proprietary computer vision technology.
A 10 inches NaviLens code can be read up to 60 feet away in 0.03 seconds, covering 160° degrees.Two Apps Available to interact with this new technology:
The NaviLens App helps visually-impaired users, who can scan the codes without needing to know exactly where they are, offering the same information as the signage very accurately.
The NaviLens GO App provides in-station navigation, trip planning information, train arrivals and service status information to help sighted users navigate the station and the system.
You can check by yourself how well the technology works, pointing your phone towards the photos of this email using any NaviLens Apps.
The code can be printed in any material, like vinyl and can be placed very high. The code can be scanned by a mobile phone up 80° degrees (Vertically & horizontally).
The code is very easy to implement at any space: As easy as emplacement the code over current signage.
