We're excited to announce that Hope Tech will be exhibiting at Sight Village London 2026 — and we'll be bringing something special: Sixth Sense, our new wearable navigational aid for blind and visually impaired people.
What is Sight Village?
Sight Village is the UK's leading exhibition for the blind and low-vision community and an integral part of the assistive technology landscape. It brings together the latest technology, products, and support services under one roof — a sensory-rich environment where you can see, touch, and fully experience what's on display, including Sixth Sense.
