New Tech: Hands on Envision Glasses

Описание: The Envision smart glasses provide a range of intriguing features for visually impaired people; from reading text as you walk around, to video calling capabilities – there’s a lot on offer. But we want to know how helpful this really is for visually impaired people, so join us as we take the Envision Glasses for a spin at London Heathrow Airport.

Entering or already in education
