Horus Technology has developed a stereo bone conduction device that uses object recognition, navigation assistance, and facial recognition to help the 285 million people worldwide who have sight loss live more independently. The device was created after countless hours of work by a team that spoke often about their idea, helped each other without being greedy, asked mentors for help, said no when needed, and applied to many grants and accelerators.
Insurers' journeys to build a mastery in the IoT usage
Lesson learned
1. The invisible made audible
285 million of people do not live
independently due to sight loss.
We want to give them a device
that will change their lives.
A product by

Goodmorning anyone, my name is Benedetta Magri and today I want to introduce you to the world of Horus Technology.

As we started working on Horus talking with associations, this device has been approved by the Italian Blind Union. Thanks to a universal joint we don't ask to the person to buy a new pair of glasses that could be very expensive. And to avoid the problem of obstruct the person hearing channel we give information via bone conduction. This is system allows waves to go through bones instead of air, without creating any consequences for the person, but giving a third way for sounds. Infact surrounding sounds are fundamental for the person orientation. The wire you can see in the picture is linked with a pocket-sized unit and in this way we reduce the weight of the part on the head, separating battery and computational parts.
