We’re honored to announce that dotLUMEN, glasses for the blind, has won the prestigious 2021 Red Dot Luminary Award!

This award is given to products that offer outstanding design and are innovative in their field. It’s an honor for us, as the designers of the product, to receive this award, and we’re excited to see how our amazing glasses will change the lives of people with visual impairments.

The glasses were designed by the product design team at DESIRO VISION, from late July 2020 to June 2021.

The .Lumen glasses is a revolutionary product that helps blind people navigate their surroundings. They offer a system for the 40 million blind individuals which can’t have an advanced mobility solution. It replicates the main features a guide dog brings, in a scalable product.

The .lumen glasses:
Understand the environment, objects, their position and movement in 3D
Compute interaction paths to wanted objects or generally, based on context
Transmit information to the blind using haptic and auditory impulses

The Red Dot Award is one of the most prestigious in the world, and it recognizes excellence in design. That’s a pretty big deal!

It’s been an incredible journey getting dotLumen from idea to product, and we couldn’t have done it without our amazing team and the support of all of the people involved. Thank you so much for believing in us, for helping us make this happen, and for being part of our community!
