Honda Cynic: Shaun Responds To New Honda Scenic Audio App
July 8, 2024
Honda has developed an app called Honda Scenic Audio that uses AI to provide live audio descriptions of the environment to blind and visually impaired people while they are in a car.
The app combines computer vision and generative AI to describe the scenery and surroundings in a poetic and storytelling manner.
The partnership with Perkins School for the Blind and the Howe Innovation Center ensured that blind people were involved in the development of the app.
The feedback from users has been positive, with many expressing delight at the detailed and customizable information provided by the app.
Shaun Preece isn’t quite so convinced and shares his thoughts to Steven Scott.
