OrCam Technologies is a leader in personal artificial vision innovation – AI for humans. The company was jointly founded in 2010 by Israeli innovators Prof. Amnon Shashua and Mr. Ziv Aviram. Inspired by their groundbreaking artificial vision technology that supports safer driving, OrCam harnesses AI-driven computer vision in breakthrough wearable/handheld platforms that provide increased independence. Pioneered by leading minds in the Computer Vision and Machine Learning fields, these innovations deliver “AI as a companion”, operating completely offline in real time, thereby ensuring data privacy. In contrast to “AI” as a ubiquitous buzzword, residing vaguely in the background, OrCam pioneers personal AI with a purpose, AI which directly and immediately impacts the quality of life of a wide spectrum of populations:
• People who are blind or visually impaired
• People who have reading difficulties including dyslexia, reading fatigue, or those who read large amounts of text
