Rango and Airdrives

Rango is an electronic device that can be added to a white cane to enhance it with smart properties. By attaching it to a regular white cane, Rango allows users to sense and avoid any obstacles they may come across. 

It provides users with head to toe and shoulder-width protection. 

Rango is a fully virtual smart shield that protects users by locating 3D obstacles and by identifying those that represent real danger. 

The device’s powerful sound-spatialisation technology and its smart sensors will allow you to precisely locate any obstacles (front, top, bottom, right and left) in your path.

Rango is a lightweight ergonomic device.

Airdrives design is innovative and unique, allowing you to enjoy your music while remaining fully aware of your surroundings.

Nowadays, it has been clearly demonstrated that wearing internal earpieces or wearing headphones while traveling around town significantly increases the risk of having an accident.

Airdrives are outside-the-ear headphones that are the perfect solution for moving around town safely while listening to music.

While using your Airdrives, you will still be able to hear a scooter arriving behind you from a distance of 20 metres. Hence, an approaching car, bus or tram will no longer pose any risk for you.

Whether you are a visually impaired, a blind or a sighted person, Airdrives headphones will allow you to remain alert to your surroundings.

Visually impaired people combine the use of their headphones Rango thereby benefitting from our augmented reality sound technology. This will help orient yourself and avoid obstacles thanks to 3D sound signaling, while also remaining alert to your surroundings.
