About Visual Interpretation

Aira provides visual interpreting, making visual information accessible for people who are blind or have low vision. Professional interpreters describe, read, explain, and guide in real time through audio. Think of it as an on-demand partnership: the interpreter shares visual details and context about your surroundings to support independence. With the free Aira Explorer App, you can connect instantly to a trained interpreter whenever you need. You can use Aira to:

  • Navigate new or unfamiliar places
  • Read text, signs, or labels
  • Identify objects and products
  • Operate technology and digital tools
  • Receive descriptions while traveling or at events
