eSight Go Demonstration Deep Dive!

Welcome to another Tech Connect presented by the Vision Forward Association!

Last time, we unboxed the brand new eSight Go and went over the hardware and development history of this new wearable magnifier. If you want to start from the beginning, follow this link to part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5COiv-tMVU

Today we are going to demonstrate the various modes of this new device and see just how well it preforms in a variety of situations! This includes: low and high light level environments, close-up and distance viewing, brightness and contrast settings, color filters, stabilization and tilt adjustment, and perhaps most importantly we tested how this device feels to use for longer periods of time. Our Assistive Technology Experts have run this device through its paces and they are excited to share their findings with everyone.
