The Honda Scenic Audio App is Informed by the Perkins School for the Blind
Honda has collaborated with the Perkins School for the Blind to develop the Honda Scenic Audio app. The platform aims to enable people to experience the joy of scenic drives. The Honda Scenic Audio app utilizes a blend of computer vision, generative artificial intelligence, satellite imaging, geotargeting, and weather reports to provide expressive narratives about the world outside the car windows.
Dennis Gilliam, Ed. D., president of AIDB, emphasizes the role of technology in building accessible and equitable futures: "Technology, such as the Scenic Audio app Honda is rolling out in this beta testing, has helped bridge the gap from reliance upon others to independent living and discovery."
Beta testing of the app is currently underway with the Perkins School for the Blind and the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind.
