Beyond Sight and Sound
Our wristband, xBand, can be useful for many different people and for different reasons but for individuals who are blind, deaf-blind or visually impaired it allows communication in the many situations where existing assistive technologies are inadequate.
xBand, helps you stay connected, wherever you are and whatever you are doing. You can discreetly check the time and receive phone notifications without using a Braille display or blocking your ears with headphones. With xBand, you can keep your focus on what's going on around you, instead of on your phone.
