Excellence in Design & Societal Impact: Echoview.ai

Senior Design team Echoview.ai set out to create an accessible, cost-effective assistive device for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community that could be seemlessly integrated into daily life. Their revolutionary device provides real-time speech-to-text transcription, right in the wearer's field of vision, paired with an iOS-compatible mobile app to enable the user to reference past conversations. Echoview.ai's prototype is a step forward into a more inclusive world, where every voice can be understood by all.
