Promoted by CIGIP researchers Raúl Poler and Ángel Ortiz, Exos Solutions SL has the UPV itself among its founding partners. Its activity focuses on research, development and innovation through the provision of consulting services to improve management and decision-making processes in companies and organizations.

This software is also being used by the company Ericsson Mobile Communications and the University of Linköping (Sweden).

Eye2021 SL Group

For its part, Grupo Eye 2021 SL -established in 2012- is a company promoted by CITG researchers Guillermo Peris and Víctor Santiago, together with the Chinese businessman Zouqun Cai. Its activity focuses on the development and integration of applications to help blind or visually impaired people through advanced technology.

Its reference product is the EYE21 glasses, a device that helps the blind detect obstacles, recognize people, find objects and read. The result of more than ten years of research, they transform the images captured by two video cameras into sounds.

As Guillermo Peris explains, “sound helps blind people know if there are static or mobile objects in front of them that may cross their path. The glasses are connected to a microcomputer that processes the images and to headphones that the user is wearing.”

In addition, UPV researchers have developed specific applications for other areas, such as athletics, and are currently working on new models for other sports such as skiing or motorsports.
