Your AI mobility companion on your shoulders.
NOA is a revolutionary vest worn like a backpack that guides people with blindness and low vision in complement to canes & dogs. With cameras, a computer, and hands-free operation, it speaks to you to give you clear instructions.
Through audio feedback, NOA identifies obstacles, provides GPS navigation, describes surroundings, and helps locate important things like crosswalks and doors - both indoors and outdoors.
Imagine an AI companion. On your shoulders.

"In 20 meters, turn right."

What is NOA?
NOA stands for Navigation, Obstacle and AI. A real mobility buddy on your shoulders.
Navigation: Get turn-by-turn GPS instructions in bone-conduction headphones on planned or new routes. "In 20 meters, turn right at 2 o'clock."
Obstacle: Detect obstacles day and night, head or ground level with "beeps". Low hanging branches, holes, electric scooters, or traffic signs.
AI: Get descriptions of your surroundings, hands-free, using AI. And find objects like doors, benches, stairs or crosswalks.
NOA works day and night. Its cameras have night vision and can see in the dark. The device has the same field of view as the human eye.
NOA is lightweight (1kg or 2 lbs) and can even be worn on top of a backpack. Batteries last up to 6 hours in continuous use.

NOA produces audio feedback, played in bone-conduction headphones, to leave your ears free. If you walk with NOA, here's an example of what you'll hear:

Discover Gustavo's testimonial
biped's co-founder, Mael, was recently invited by the Vista Center for the Blind at Sight Tech Global, the leading event for low vision assistive technology. He had the chance to chat with Gustavo, one of the early adopters of NOA. If you have a few minutes, grab a cup of coffee and listen to the conversation!
