More exciting news from the Pathlight Team! We’ll be assembling this November to pitch at Pennstate’s Annual Entrepreneurship Challenge LionCage. It’ll be the first time we’ve put Pathlight on display in front of investors. Hopefully we’ll walk alway with more funding to reinvest into the prototype!

Lighting the path for the blind and visually impaired with assistive devices.
关于我们
Founded during the final session of Yale's Young Global Scholars Program, our mission has been to bridge the physical divide that currently barrs blind and visually-impaired persons from social integratoin. Since our inception, we have emphasized innovation and cooperation in creating more effective and technologically-advanced devices to serve the blind and V-I community. With ideas ranging from primary navigational tools and softwares to learning assistive devices, we are commited to user-experience and affordability, aiming to provide care on an individual level to not just the severely-impaired community but eventually anyone experiencing even mild visual impairment.

We've spent the last three months taking what had previously been just an idea in our heads, and making it into something real. We're very proud to announce the the first-ever Pathlight prototype! This past summer, we all convened in North Carolina where, out of a makeshift lab of mismatched tables and tall glasses of Olympic-Flavored Coca Cola and 10 hour days, a iteration of Pathlight complete with AI Obstacle-Detection and Identification as well as an Light-Based Guidance System was produced. Stay tuned as we continue to refine and tweak Pathlight. We've already begun partnerships for validation and testing with blind schools in North Carolina and are working hard to get the prototype to its peak form as we continue to apply for more funding!

We’re proud to announce another huge milestone for the Pathlight team… We’re NSHSS BE MORE FINALISTS!! What that means: In the coming weeks we will be finalizing a slideshow and accompanying video as well as tweaking the prototype for presentation. In mid-November, I will be flying down to Atlanta, on behalf of the team, and pitching in a shark-tank event for a 66% chance at $10,000. We all feel so incredibly fortunate and are excited to keep moving forward!
