Pioneering smart eyewear
for blind and vision impaired people
LTH01
An eyewear frame to help people living with low vision and blindness get outside with confidence
How it works
LTH01 is our first-generation eyewear frame for people with vision impairment, blindness, and spatial perceptual disorders.
Fashion frames with a high-tech core
Sensors and electronics are incorporated modularly in eyewear temples allowing users to select fashion eyewear frame components.
The LTH01 modular series is ready to be incorporated into fashion eyewear collections. We want to help people with vision loss to feel comfortable and look good! Talk to our design team to learn more.
Co-designed and validated with blind and vision impaired people
“Cool! Because they use haptics to tell you if an object comes from a particular direction … on your right, or on your left, or straight ahead"
Matt Ater, Chair
Consumer Technology Association Foundation
“LTH01 is very comfortable and very lightweight!"
“The vibration alert works smoothly.”
Claudia Biasca, blind since the age of 8
alpha tester
“Haptics in the frame are effective."
“You want something easy to grab when you take your kids to the park”
