 I'm in a booth with E-Site, Frank Jones, and I am so bad at names Yvonne Felix, and this is a product that I looked at online before I came, and this is somebody I actually wanted to make sure I came to see. So what is E-Site? Well, thanks for coming to see us. Appreciate it. E-Site is a wearable head-mounted display camera system. It's used to help people who have low vision see. So it's, you know, we can get into the technical details if you'd like. Oh, you betcha. That's where we go. Okay. Perfect. So if you take a look over here, Yvonne is wearing her head-mounted display. It has a camera built into it, range finders underneath. Those range finders are used to focus the camera automatically. So it's continuously autofocusing. You can look at near objects, far objects. It's presenting the information to Yvonne's eyes through near-to-eye displays. So how is it doing the distances? How is it figuring that out? Well, time-of-flight range finders. Okay. So these range finders are calibrated. In Fred? Yeah. Okay. So, image processing happens in that loop. So every video frame is processed. And the trick to doing that is to do it with very low latency. So, you know, good frame rate so that you don't see flicker on the screen. You can turn her head and not get sick. Exactly. No, that's hugely important and necessary. So we're getting distances from that. But how is this actually helping her see? Right. So it's a combination of magnification and image processing that's allowing that to happen. So image processing being contrast as a good example or, let's say, binarizing an image. So like contrast detection on focusing on some digital cameras use contrast detection for the edge? Yeah, that would be detection of contrast. In our case, we're actually modifying the image to exaggerate contrast. So let's say we have two shades of gray that our healthy eyes can recognize. But the less healthy eye couldn't turn that into black and white just as an extreme exaggeration that allows a healthy eye to see that difference. So I wanted to ask you, Van, what visual impairment do you have? I have Stargardt's disease. Okay. And so what's the difference between not wearing these glasses and moreing them for you? So if I tilt these up out of the way and just use my natural vision, I have a scatoma centrally that takes up 98% of my visual field. And a scatoma is? Central blinds. It's a blind spot. So I have a central blind spot. Perfectly, I can see my hands move and very little detail and I can't see color. When I use the eyewear, I can actually see your face and I can see you looking at me that you have glasses on. That level of detail? Yes. Yes. So I can get as close to you as actually seeing your pupil and the color of your eyes I think. So we're looking at her right now, looking at me. And in a minute they said they're going to let me put on the glasses and we'll see what I see, what I'm able to see with it. So when she flips this up, it's really cool looking actually. It's a big white thing with what's got two eyes, which is kind of... She's accessorized. Oh, have you? You added those? Yeah. Oh my God, they're awesome. You should totally productize that. It's too like googly eyes sitting on it. That's awesome. And then I can see the detectors and receiver there. But when you flip it up, it sort of looks like regular glasses underneath? Yeah. So my prescription is actually built in and they just sit in regular frames. Oh, I see. I see. So, Frank, what different kinds of vision loss is this good for? A lot of types of disease. Macular generation is one of the larger ones. Diabetic retinopathy, stargarts, leavers, quite a long list. You can see them on our website, I think it's listed there. But generally you certainly need visual function. Because it's not for the completely blind. A lot of users are around the 2,200 sort of range. Some are as bad as 2,000 or even a little bit worse than that. If you're 2,060 or better, you don't really need the glasses. Okay. Okay. I see. All right. So should I put these on? Sure. All right. So you're going to have to hold the mic. Okay. I'll be the interviewer now. All right. See, Frank. I'll be asking the questions. This is what you wanted. All right. Okay. Is it a mild prescription? It's a mild prescription. Okay. Then you'll be fine to put it on. Because I'm actually also wearing contacts. Okay. It's a long story. Everything goes above my head? That's right. So that, yeah. That goes on your forehead. Okay. All right. Does that go on the end of my nose? No. It goes, yeah. Above your eyebrows. And there is a rear strap, which we haven't attached yet. Okay. It's not staying on. Yeah. You're going to have to hold onto it. Just hold on. Without that rear strap. Okay. So fire it up. Okay. So there's a, it looks to be like a PlayStation controller down here. All right. I see an east side logo. It's been looking pretty good so far. There we go. So Yvonne, do you want to drive to the UI there? Yeah. Only I'm going to look at Yvonne. Sure. She did it to me. All right. Keep the mic in close here. They don't want to miss a minute of this. All right. So I see Yvonne. And now what are you going to do to me here? So I'm going to show you the magnification or the zoom first, which is 24 times zoom. Lift your hands up a little bit so they can see the screen. Oh my goodness. I looked away and now I'm looking at her nose. My, you have pretty teeth. All right. Thank you. So that can go up 24 times so I'm not going to do that to my face. I can actually change the color contrast or the, there's binary, different binary modes. So you get a black and white. Everything's black and white. White with black. That should be black with yellow. Yes. So the different colors. Why would we have that? Because some people can see some colors better in contrast. Yes. That would be a frank answer. Yeah. That's right. Different. Frank tries to give Yvonne a mic on that one. Yeah. Yeah. Different people have different preferences and it's also can be task dependent. So depending on what you're trying to do, you may use the binarization for reading, but maybe not for looking at a face or orienting around the room. So people would actually read with this. Absolutely. That's one of the big tasks that people perform with it. Sure. I was going to show you the menu, but I'll also show you an example. So if you were looking at print, something that you could do to make it a little bit easier is actually pause the image. And then you can turn up the magnification or zoom while it's paused. And you can actually pan your head around the image. Yeah. So I'm moving my head around on a still image of her right now. So that's if you wanted to capture something you wanted to read, for example. You don't want to be wiggling around. Right. And also we can take photos with the unit as well. So this is really helpful in a classroom setting or let's say you're in a meeting and there's PowerPoints up. You could take a picture of every file that's presented and then look at it later, the way you're looking at that still image now. The same is also true for computer input. So we have an HDMI interface to the device. So this can be your computer monitor. And you can zoom in on that computer display, pan around, just like you're doing right now. By the way, I am noticing when I move it around, the frame rate is pretty good. A little bit of lag, but not much really. That's pretty interesting. So I'm going to take this off now. And Mike, Frank, I'm going to take away your microphone. Frank, I'll take away your mic. Not Mike, I'll take away your Frank. So is this product on the market today? Yes, it is. Yeah. This is our third generation technology. Oh wow. Yeah. So we just announced this product two weeks ago. Okay. We've not seen that press release. Probably. So how much does this cost? This costs $99.95 US dollars. Okay. And is it covered under Medicaid or any of those things yet? Not Medicaid, but there are some private insurance companies that can pay for part of it at times. It's very jurisdictional, depends on the insurer. So there's people, works for it, they can afford it, they pay for it. We also have employees who work on affordability. So they'll help people navigate either state programs. Okay. Okay, great. So with that, there's also benefactors who really try to help other people. So that's pretty neat. It's through philanthropy basically. Oh, I see, I see. So would somebody be able to test this out first to see if it worked for their particular impairment? Right. That's the normal process. So we have demonstrations that we perform in major centers all over the US, Canada. We're going to Europe fairly soon as well. Oh great. Presence in these various locations and you contact us online at eastsideiwear.com. And that's esightiwear.com. Correct. Great. Thank you very much and you did great. Thank you for your time, Yvonne. Thank you.
