Sullivan+

Sullivan++ is a revolutionary visual-aid application designed to significantly enhance the quality of life for individuals with visual impairments or low vision. It leverages your smartphone’s camera to provide an array of innovative features including Text Recognition, Face Recognition, Image Description, Color Recognition, Light Brightness detection, and a versatile Magnifying Glass function.

Imagine the ease of reading documents, magazines, or newspapers as the app identifies text and audibly conveys its contents to you. Meeting new people becomes more engaging with Face Recognition, where it not only recognizes the person but also informs you about their age and gender. For times when you’re curious about your surroundings, the Image Description feature intuitively identifies and verbalizes details about the objects around you.

Choosing outfits is made simple with Color Recognition, which helps you identify specific colors through a single-color mode or a full-color mode that describes predominant colors on the entire screen. Additionally, if you’ve ever wondered whether you left the lights on, the Light Brightness feature can detect and inform you based on the ambient light sensor in compatible smartphones.

For detailed visualization, the Magnifying Glass feature allows you to zoom and enhance visuals, making small text or distant details easier to see.

Key functionalities include:

1. Text Recognition for instant audio playback of printed text.

2. Face Recognition to help identify individuals and their characteristics.

3. Image Description for a spoken description of your surroundings.

4. Color Recognition to assist with identifying and describing colors.

5. Light Brightness detection to check ambient light.

6. A Magnifying feature for better clarity or detail.

Accessible only on Android 5.0 or higher, this platform ensures broad compatibility with modern devices. While primarily using the camera for visual aids, it temporarily stores images for processing and then deletes them to ensure privacy and efficiency. The software has also been recognized with an App Accessibility (MA) Certification, reassuring users of its commitment to accessibility support.

For anyone with low vision or visual impairments, Sullivan++ offers an empowering, independent experience through simple, user-friendly interfaces and powerful assistance tools, making everyday tasks more accessible and efficient.
