Thanks to the Wyes First
The Wyes First device meets several needs depending on each user's requirements.
Regain the power to express yourself
The Wyes First lets you use many communication apps with pictograms or a keyboard.
Browse your digital interfaces
The Wyes First lets you use a smartphone, tablet or computer using accessibility features.
Trigger a call bell whenever needed
The Wyes First lets you use a call bell to alert a loved one or caregiver whenever needed.
The Wyes First
The Wyes First device consists of a pair of connected glasses and a control unit.
THE POWER TO COMMUNICATE
Le Wyes First est un dispositif qui permet de contrôler des objets connectés grâce aux mouvements des yeux, et ainsi de retrouver de l'autonomie et la communication.
A LIGHTWEIGHT CONNECTED FRAME
3D-printed, the Wyes First glasses offer a flawless finish without being too heavy — the built-in electronics weigh just 3.5g (about the weight of three little butterflies).
PRECISE DETECTION
The Wyes First glasses feature 6 infrared sensors capable of detecting every movement of the eyes and surrounding muscles, adapting to the user's motor abilities and to how the disease progresses.
A SMART CONTROL UNIT
Wired to the glasses, the Wyes First control unit can process the detected signals to tell deliberate movements apart from natural, uncontrolled ones. The detected voluntary movements act as commands to control a connected device.
AN EFFICIENT CALIBRATION
Our innovative technology enables a simple, quick and personalized calibration process, so you can take the connected glasses off and put them back on later without recalibrating. And that changes everything.
They encouraged and supported the design of the Wyes First
The Wyes+ module
SIMPLE TO USE
The Wyes+ module is the accessory that lets the Wyes First control a connected device. The Wyes+ plugs easily into the Wyes First control unit.
Each Wyes+ module lets you use a connected device (call bell, tablet, …) via a wired connection (mini-jack, direct or via an adapter).
MULTIPLE USES
It is possible to connect several modules Wyes+ to the control unit of your Wyes First device, so you can use several connected devices at the same time.
Each Wyes+ module controls the connected device it's paired with, using a single calibrated voluntary movement.
The benefits of the Wyes First
+ more peace of mind
The Wyes First lets you alert a loved one day or night whenever needed with a call bell, for greater peace of mind and safety.
+ de confort
The Wyes First is easy to hold, simple to use, adapts to everyone, and is less tiring to use than other technical solutions.
+ more autonomy
The Wyes First lets you control digital tools (smartphone, tablet, computer...) and their uses (Internet, Facebook, home automation...).
+ possibilities
The Wyes First works with most connected devices and is compatible with all operating systems (Windows, iOS, etc.).
+ de partage
The Wyes First lets you use the communication app of your choice, so you can better connect with your loved ones.
+ portability
The Wyes First goes anywhere and can be used indoors or outdoors, at home, in the garden, or during a hospital appointment.
An evolving device
The Wyes First adapts to you. Not the other way around.
BASED ON YOUR MOTOR ABILITIES
In developing our technology, we took into account that certain conditions and diseases, particularly neurodegenerative ones, can change physical condition and therefore motor abilities.
By getting your Wyes First, you benefit from a device that adapts to changes in the degree of facial paralysis and to your controlled movements. This is possible thanks to easily adjustable calibration and our personalized support (with plenty of care!).
BASED ON YOUR PERSONAL NEEDS
By getting your Wyes First device today, you'll also be able to add more features later, as your needs evolve.
This will be possible through software extensions and additional products that we will develop as we make progress, based on your feedback, and that will be compatible with your Wyes First.
Examples of future features and products: a software extension allowing each Wyes+ to enable several commands on one connected device, a simple and intuitive interface to calibrate it yourself, a Wyes+ module enabling Bluetooth connectivity... Your ideas will shape it too!
Pourquoi un dispositif évolutif ?
It's + more affordable
Rather than having to buy a new device for every new need, you get a solution that evolves and adapts with you.
It's + more practical
Despite changes in your physical condition and needs, you keep the same technology you already know and have mastered.
It's + more eco-friendly
As ecology is an important societal challenge, it's commendable to pursue efficiency through a single, complete solution.
And it's (above all) + accessible
With the Wyes First, we offer you a complete, evolving solution that's accessible at the lowest possible price, compared to technologies sold in the disability sector. You'll be able to expand your solution as your needs grow, only if future features interest you. That way, you only get what's useful to you! This commitment to making our technology accessible, both technically and financially, has always guided us.
A solution designed to be as universal as possible
The Wyes First device aims to adapt to as many diseases, conditions and specific cases as possible.
Charcot's disease(ALS)
Locked-in-Syndrome (LIS)
Multiple system atrophy (MSA)
Tetraplegia, multiple disabilities
Stroke with hemiplegia, aphasia
Sclerosis
Myopathies, dystrophies
and other cases too...
For which physical condition ?
The Wyes First was designed, first and foremost, for people physically unable to express themselves. Our connected glasses adapt to different degrees of facial paralysis in order to detect an endless range of movements — eye and facial (a wink, a raised eyebrow, a blink, a pupil movement, etc.).
For which cognitive condition ?
Our device is designed for people with no or minimal cognitive impairment. However, it may be possible for someone with cognitive impairment to master the technology with practice. We are also currently developing, with researchers, a training protocol for people with brain injuries.
Not sure whether the Wyes First device would suit your needs, those of a loved one, or a patient?
