Research confirmed it: expecting people to learn Sign Language on their own isn't enough.

inSign glasses — dynamic view

Neuromorphic vision sensor

Ultra-high-speed micro-sensors that capture the rapid gestures of Sign Language (LIS) with no delay.

Waveguide & protective lenses

The outer polycarbonate lens shields the tech, the inner one projects the AR interface.

The Desktop Web App picks up the baton — and parents stop being spectators.

Profile

Avatars, levels and streaks — progress becomes a social experience.

Micro video capsules from the teacher, reviewed at your own pace.

Dictionary

Signs on loop, organized by semantic categories and filters.

Practice

The webcam becomes a visor — instant feedback on every sign.

Parents' Area

Progress, study time and school communications — shared with the family.
