Sunu Nek was designed as an augmented reality interface worn around the neck, employing radar, audio cues, and haptic feedback to enhance the mobility and daily living experience for visually impaired individuals. The device uses vibrations to inform users of nearby obstacles in real-time, while GPS-enabled voice features provide orientation assistance. The initial focus was on serving the blind community, but the vision extended to creating a non-intrusive human-computer interface accessible to everyone. The long-term ambition was to move towards a future where technology seamlessly integrates into daily life, similar to the concept portrayed in the movie "Her."
