The first vibrating GPS for the blind and visually impaired
An accurate, perfectly accessible GPS that doesn't monopolize your hearing for safe travel: it's now a reality!
Thanks to our GPS app designed for the visually impaired and our 2 vibrating bracelets, once your destination is entered into the app, put your phone in your pocket or bag and let the vibrations guide you!
Complementary to a white cane or even a guide dog, our GPS allows you to free up your hearing and guide you to your desired destination optimally and safely.

They support us:
BPI France has been working with us since the company was founded on various innovation programs (PIA, Innov Up Faisabilité, Innov Up Expérimentation). This major player in the ecosystem supports innovative French projects.
The Ile de France region is supporting the project by funding a thesis on the application of artificial intelligence to indoor guidance. This thesis is being carried out in partnership with the CNAM (Centre National des Arts et Métiers).
After winning 3 competitions (Bridgehead and Headstart) organized by Eit Health, our journey towards excellence in healthcare and our expansion in Europe have been greatly strengthened by the unwavering support of Eit Health, an organization committed to stimulating innovation in the healthcare sector.
The Valentin Hauy Foundation has been a supporter from the outset. As early as 2019, the foundation believed in our project and wanted to support us in our drive to create an indoor guidance solution.
The Voir Ensemble association supported us through the Prix Avenir Voir Ensemble. In particular, the project has enabled us to generalize the use of multimodal (public transport) in our route calculation.
Locomotion instructors from the French Federation of the Blind are trained in the use of N-VIBE bracelets.
It was the Challenge Open Beacon competition organized by the SNCF that enabled us to propose an indoor guidance solution for stations. Having won the competition, we're now working with the SNCF to make stations ever more accessible.
Thanks to N-VIBE's integration into Microsoft's ShareAI acceleration program, we've been able to create a solid server architecture and continue collaborating with Microsoft on our tech topics.
With social impact at the heart of N-VIBE's proposition, joining the Antropia Essec incubator was an obvious choice for us.

O&M Specialists
Since its conception, N-Vibe has worked in collaboration with orientation and mobility specialists. Their role and advice are essential to the ongoing development of our N-Vibe wristbands. Some of the bracelets' functionalities are developed with them, such as the mirror bracelet mode, the crosswalk mode and the street side mode.
We currently work with over 40 partner associations, both referent and non-referent, throughout France.
Our trained orientation and mobility specialists are there to test the bracelets and show you how to use them, during a locomotion course.
