Get an honest first look at the Ally Solo smart glasses in action. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dig into AI-assisted object recognition, usability for blind users, and whether current wearable AI is practical.This episode of Double Tap takes a deep dive into the real-world performance of the Ally Solo glasses. Steven and Shaun listen to a demo of the AI identifying and comparing two oat milk cartons, evaluating speed, detail, and practicality. They debate whether current AI in smart glasses, like Meta Ray-Bans and Ally Solo, truly enhances daily life for blind users or if it’s still hampered by delay and inaccuracy. The conversation expands into broader concerns around general versus niche AI models, practical use cases for blind people, and how expectations for wearables often differ from reality. The hosts also touch on the Monarch multi-line Braille display and a listener’s experience navigating success, independence, and community perceptions.Relevant LinksEnvision Ally Solos: https://shop.letsenvision.com/en-caMonarch Braille Display: https://www.humanware.com/en-gb/monarchDouble Tap Feedback: mailto:
