Virtual assistant for daily living in low vision
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a virtual assistant that helps people with low vision navigate daily tasks. Researchers will see if it improves brain activity and real-world function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You either have a visual impairment and use a white cane or guide dog, or you have normal vision and do not use mobility aids.

This study tests if small sensors attached to magnifiers and remote rehab sessions can help people with low vision use their new devices more. You may join if you recently got a magnifier or vision app and can attend visits.
This study tests a new AI system designed to improve what people with visual prostheses 'see.' If you have an implanted device like the Argus II or Orion, you may be able to help by coming to the lab for several days of vision testing.
This study tests a new system called VisionWay to help people with severe vision loss or blindness navigate safely. Researchers want to see if it works better than a cane or guide dog alone.
This study tests a virtual assistant that helps caregivers of people with dementia. It may offer tips and support for managing challenging behaviors.
This trial tests if a device that converts visual information into sound or touch can help people who are blind. Researchers will see how the brain adapts to using this new sense.
