Our Story of Vision, Passion, and Purpose
Empowering People with Vision Impairment
WithinSight was founded with a strong sense of compassion to improve the lives of those suffering from macular degeneration.
Our founder's personal experience with his mother's debilitating condition, coupled with the passion to help others, led to the development of our assistive technology products. Our commitment to innovation, trial and error, perseverance, and attention to detail have driven us to create products that have the potential to impact millions of lives.
OUR VISION is to develop the WS1 Visual Assistant into a reliable and useful device to help assist the visually impaired to live their lives every day independently.
The “Why” Behind the Design
Currently the WS1 Visual Assistant is a wireless & tetherless magnification device. “Wireless” meaning the camera unit communicates directly to a receiver. The receiver has an HDMI output that plugs in to most any monitor or modern TV. Being “tetherless” means you unplug the device and use the built in battery in situations that don’t allow a wired device. You do not need the internet or a dedicated router. The system is self contained.
Our WS1 assistive technology is designed with one primary goal in mind: improving the lives of the visually impaired. Every design choice we make is rooted in what's best for the end user. Our current model boasts an impressive range of features, but we won't stop there. In the future, our devices will include text-to-speech capability, symbol recognition via AI, verbal commands, and state-of-the-art security features.
