What is Aira, and how does visual interpreting work? 🎙️
We joined Vision Ireland on Talking Technology to break it down.
In episode 109, Jenine Stanley shares how Aira connects people who are blind or have low vision with trained Visual Interpreters for real-time access to visual information. You’ll also hear what it’s like behind the scenes from a Visual Interpreter, plus a look at what’s ahead with Meta smart glasses.
From everyday tasks to unexpected moments, this episode gives a clear, human look at visual interpreting in action.

Aira Access Events, Offering Visual Interpreting at Disability:IN
We are thrilled to launch Aira Access Events at the 2024 Disability:IN Global Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, offering visual interpreting free during plenary sessions and at the host hotel. Through the Aira app, participants can access on-demand visual interpreting, whether individually or in group sessions.
Attending events as someone who is blind or low vision can mean difficulty identifying booths in chaotic expo halls, struggling to find the correct conference room, or missing the speaker’s facial expression that made everyone else laugh. Our world is visual and access to the full event experience should be available to everyone.
Interested in offering Aira at your event? Contact our team! For full details and a list of Disability:IN sessions with visual interpreting, check out our blog post.
