Listen along during  this Blinded Veterans Association’s VetTech episode as we learn from Mike Buckley, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Be My Eyes. Mike will explain this service, free of charge, that connects the blind and low vision with sighted volunteers and company representatives for the purpose of visual assistance through a live video call. Mike discusses how to download and start a call with a volunteer, use A.I. to describe pictures, and provided information about upcoming updates to Be My Eyes.

 

Not a BVA member, no problem. All VetTech sessions are open to everyone—blind and low-vision veterans, family members, caregivers, blind rehabilitation specialists, and anyone interested in the assistive, adaptive, and accessible technology that can empower independence.
