The WayAround system uses smart tags plus a mobile app for iOS or Android to provide custom audio information about items around the home, office and other common locations, according to a press release from the company.
WayAround is built with inclusive design in mind, and the app works intuitively for anyone with any degree of vision loss, on the user’s preferred mobile platform, according to Darwin Belt, cofounder and manager of WayAround.
The free app works together with small, inexpensive smart tags that can be placed directly onto everyday items. Users may add a description of any item in addition to other details such as laundering instructions, allergens, best-before dates and more.
