I mean, no? Yes everyone hates on techbro things, but the possible benefit to the visually impaired cannot be understated. There shouldnt be a ban on ANY accessibility technology when it can help enrich the lives of those living with disabilities.
Now, should it be heavily regulated? Absolutely. People like to make jokes about European countries and their licenses for everything, but this should be a licensed disability aid, not an off the shelf dudebro accessory.
A blind person getting real time narration about their environment sounds amazing.
The data shouldn’t be stored, and shouldnt be procced remotaly.
On device or person just in time processing. That would be fine for me.
