Glide

Glidance, Inc.
  • 2027 Honoree in Accessibility & Longevity, Vehicle Tech & Advanced Mobility
Glide is the world's first "intelligent guide" — an affordable personal mobility device for people who are blind, low vision, or experiencing vision loss with age. Using advanced AI technology built from the ground up for navigating unstructured pedestrian environments, Glide offers the blind and low vision community a genuine third option alongside the white cane or guide dog. With two all-terrain wheels and an adjustable telescoping handle, you simply nudge Glide forward and let it steer the way. Glide physically guides you through familiar and new environments, avoiding obstacles and hazards, describing your surroundings, and identifying key information as you move. Quick to learn and intuitive to use, whether it’s a trip to the local store or navigating a busy airport, Glide gives you the freedom to move independently, confidently, and on your own terms.
