Accessibility & Aging Tech

XanderGlasses are wearable assistive technology for people with severe hearing challenges. Everyday situations—background noises, multiple speakers, and low-voices—impede understanding and create strain. Severity intensifies with age causing individuals to withdraw and can contribute to cognitive decline.

XanderGlasses substitute “sight for sound,” enabling those who can’t hear speech to understand conversations. Using Vuzix Shield smart glasses, they combine microphones, processors, and AR displays to transcribe speech to text, and instantly project accurate captions into the wearer’s field of view. They don’t require a cloud connection, and work wherever people need them empowering people to regain confidence and independence in conversations.
