„Întotdeauna am crezut că acest lucru ar fi imposibil”. Aplicația inventată de un tânăr egiptean care a redat „vederea” nevăzătorilor din întreaga lume

A young blind entrepreneur from Egypt created the AI-based app 'ScribeMe' to help visually impaired individuals understand their surroundings. Initially designed for his sister, the app is now used by thousands in 140 countries. Mark and his sister lost their sight due to an incurable optic nerve disease. After facing challenges in school, he taught himself programming and developed 'ScribeMe', which won competitions and gained resources for expansion. The app describes surroundings through a phone camera or smart glasses, supports 20 languages, and is available for free with subscription options. Its success was highlighted during a recent trip to Kenya, allowing his sister to experience a safari independently. Mark's journey has been praised by his father, who expressed disbelief at their achievements.
