Through a smartphone app and professional remote-collaboration software, volunteers or family members can see the visually impaired user's surroundings in real time and help them identify text, signs, objects, and medication labels. Our goal is to give visually impaired users instant visual support whenever they need it — restoring independence and freedom in daily life.

Visually impaired users press and hold a button to request help. The platform instantly matches them with an available volunteer who sees the user's surroundings via live one-way video and assists with tasks like reading verification codes, identifying street signs, or checking medication labels.
A private collaboration tool focused on family and close friends. Visually impaired users can call pre-bound contacts directly, receiving real-time visual guidance in a familiar, private environment — increasing independence at home while protecting personal privacy.
As one of Huawei HiAI's earliest development partners, the Eyecoming team co-developed PocketVision — a non-profit smart assistive vision app. Compatible with Huawei and Honor devices, it uses on-device AI for OCR text recognition, intelligent image magnification, and scene awareness, helping low-vision users read and navigate daily life. Winner of the Huawei HMS Global App Innovation Contest.
