This IITian lost vision 8 years ago, he now develops ‘voice app’ that helps visually impaired use popular apps
Pramit Bhargava, an alumnus of IIT-BHU and IIM-B, is behind the Louie app that enables visually impaired users to use popular apps with voice commands.
A drug reaction 20 years ago affected the retina of Pramit Bhargava, an alumnus of IIT-BHU and IIM-B. Since then, he slowly started losing his vision, and by 2012, it had dropped to a point when he could not read anything. Losing his vision had impacted Bhargava, both mentally and physiologically. Low on confidence, the 53-year-old even started questioning himself.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank and celebrate our well-wisher, Rajender Sud for participating in the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon and raising close to 2.5 lakh rupees for Project Eyeway.
To begin with, I would like to thank you all for your support to Score Foundation over the years. Each year, I run the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon (ADHM) to raise funds for our work with blind and visually impaired people through Project Eyeway. We would raise an amount between ten to fourteen lakhs. But unfortunately, due to the pandemic this year, I was unable to participate personally in the virtual ADHM.
