中文摘要
2016年,OXSIGHT成立,旨在将这些知识开发成视觉退化的创新解决方案,在风格,功能和直观技术之间实现完美平衡。OXSIGHT与低视力社区密切合作,进行研究以了解大脑如何管理视觉信息。我们的开创性工作获得了国际认可。OXSIGHT被Tracnx评为微型企业(未来的独角兽)和可穿戴设备领域的“顶级新兴初创企业”。Onyx我们的第二代产品已经引起了极大的兴趣,并且已经被许多印刷和数字媒体文章所覆盖https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/man-rare-sight-condition-see-19153958#r3z-addoorWe已经建立了一个科学家和临床医生团队,他们联合收割机了对神经科学,眼科学,计算机视觉和机器学习的深刻理解。他们不断寻找新的想法和研究方法来改善视力障碍者的生活。我们与全球领先的视障人士和科技界合作,包括谷歌、RNIB、导盲犬协会、牛津大学、NIHR创新发明(i4 i)和皇家工程院。我们正在开发智能眼镜,让视障人士能够更好地利用他们的视力。经过多年的研发,迭代和原型,我们目前有三种产品:· Prism & Crystal-1,专为青光眼和视网膜色素变性患者通常患有的周边视力丧失(隧道视力)而设计。Crystal提供了一组可磁性连接的遮光罩,可阻挡或减少环境光线,使透明显示屏更易于查看。·Onyx将于2021年推出,主要针对患有中央视力丧失(盲点)的人群,如年龄相关性黄斑变性。Crystal-2我们的第三代产品Crystal-2具有高度创新性,是一种改变游戏规则的产品。Crystal-2不仅将拥有更好的显示屏和摄像头,还将由我们的下一代机器视觉平台驱动,该平台提供远程视觉数据处理协议,允许将耗电操作卸载到服务器/云,从而增强我们智能眼镜的功能性,外形尺寸,优雅性和舒适性-这对于增加行业部门的采用至关重要。
英文摘要
In 2016 OXSIGHT was established to develop this knowledge into innovative solutions for sight degeneration that have a perfect balance of style, functionality and intuitive technology. OXSIGHT worked closely with the low-vision community, undertaking research to understand how the brain manages visual information. We gained international recognition for our ground-breaking work. OXSIGHT was recognised as an minicorn (future unicorn) by Tracnx and 'top emerging start-up' in the wearable category. Onyx our second generation product has already generated significant interest and has been covered by a number of print and digital media articles https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/man-rare-sight-condition-see-19153958#r3z-addoorWe have built a team of scientists and clinicians that combine a deep understanding of neuroscience, ophthalmology, computer vision and machine learning. They are constantly looking at new ideas and researching ways to improve the lives of people with visual impairment. We have worked in partnership with leading global players from both the sight impaired community and the technology sector, including Google, RNIB, Guide Dogs Association, The University of Oxford, NIHR Invention for Innovation (i4i), and The Royal Academy of Engineering.We are developing smart-glasses that allow people who are visually impaired but have some residual vision to make better use of what sight they do have. After years of R&D, iterations and prototypes we have currently three products:• Prism & Crystal-1, designed for peripheral vision loss (tunnel vision), which people with Glaucoma and Retinitis Pigmentosa typically suffer from. Crystal provides a magnetically attachable set of shades to block or reduce ambient light to make the transparent display easier to see.• Onyx, which targets people living with central vision loss (blind spot) conditions such as Age Related Macular Degeneration, will be released in 2021.Crystal-2Our third-generation product Crystal-2 is highly innovative and a game changer. Crystal-2 will not only have better displays and camera but will be driven by our next-generation machine vision platform offering remote visual data processing protocol allowing off-loading of power hungry operations to a server/cloud thereby enhancing the functionality, form factor, elegance and comfort of our smart glasses - vital for increased adoption across industry sectors.
