Navigation. Obstacles. AI. NOA is your mobility companion
NOA is an all-in-one vest for people with blindness and low vision. It's a vest worn on the shoulders, with wide-angle cameras on the left of your chest, a small computer on the right, and a battery behind your neck. It's like wearing a mini-Tesla on your shoulders. It identifies dangers, guides you, and describes your surroundings with AI. All of that in less than 2 pounds.

What is NOA?
Navigation: NOA provides precise GPS navigation instructions in bone-conduction headphones, turn-by-turn. NOA's GPS supports O&M rules, such as minimizing the number of intersections. It specifically describes where crosswalks are, or the angle of your upcoming turn.
Obstacle: NOA has 3 cameras, to replicate the field of view of the human eye.
It can even see in the dark. The cameras warn about obstacles such as
low-hanging branches, holes, electric scooters, or traffic signs, with "beeps" in headphones.
Powered by self-driving car software jointly developed with Honda Research Institute.
AI: Simply press the button on the right of the vest to get a more precise description of your surroundings.
Based on your intent, NOA describes how to cross the street, how to exit a place, where stairs are...
Powered by the latest generative AI technology.
