For Amos Miller, the founder of Glidance, this isn’t simply another product; it’s a dream realized after decades of pushing the boundaries of assistive and inclusive technologies.
Since losing his sight in his 20s due to a genetic eye condition, Amos has understood first-hand the challenges the low-vision community faces. He has committed his career to breaking down barriers for this community.
As Chairman of the Board at Guide Dogs for the Blind (UK) and a former product executive at Microsoft Research—where he founded Microsoft’s Soundscape navigation app, which has since helped countless people navigate the world around them—Amos is recognized as a pioneer in the field.
His belief in and dedication to Glide is about more than just a tool for getting from point to point. It is about empowering the low-vision community by unlocking a greater sense of freedom, independence, and autonomy in navigating the world.
