Transforming visual accessibility
OpenAI Blog 3 years ago
Be My Eyes integrated OpenAI's GPT-4 to help blind and low-vision users identify objects and navigate their surroundings through their smartphone cameras. The system processes real-time camera feeds and provides instant descriptions, with response times under five seconds. This enables users to perform tasks like reading labels, identifying products, and navigating unfamiliar spaces independently rather than relying solely on sighted assistance.
