Super.com announces partnership to make gaming accessible to visually
impaired gamers
MARCH 15, 20219:57 AM
Super.com has announced its partnership with Mars Vision in order to
launch an innovative new application that will allow the visually
impaired to play games without the need for modding.
What is the software called and how does it work?
This new software is called Mars Vision and it offers a technological
solution to let all players who have low-vision or are visually impaired
enjoy computer games. The application monitors gameplay in real-time and
assists the player in navigating the game’s environment and menus. Using
a neural network, Mars Vision doesn’t change the gameplay present in a
game; rather, it translates gameplay so that the player has the
information they need to immerse themselves fully in the world. The
technology has been developed in partnership with visually impaired end
users to ensure that pain points that are present in similar software
are not experienced with Mars Vision.
Who is Super.com?
Super.com is an international video game publisher and investment fund.
They help developers create, publish, and sell their games. Their team
consists of game developers, talented marketing specialists, and
producers who have successfully launched dozens of projects, as well as
analysts, game testers, and experienced QA professionals.
Who is Mars Vision?
Mars Vision is a team developing a simple assistant that could help
players reach all their goals in genuinely challenging games. They are
experienced professionals in the field of computer vision and want
gaming to be accessible to everyone. Mars Vision lets you dive into the
incredible world of gaming and have a wide range of new experiences that
were previously out of reach.
“At Mars Vision, we feel that gaming should be available to everyone,”
commented Aleksey Antonov, Product Manager at Mars Vision. “So we wanted
to create a solution that was as flexible and as accessible as possible.
We want players who are visually impaired to be able to discover the
exciting world of gaming for themselves and have the best possible
experience, and with Mars Vision, we hope that we can achieve that.”
“What impressed us about Mars Vision was the fact it was built from the
ground up to support gaming,” commented Oleg Sambikin, CEO at Super.com.
“We could see the software’s potential right from the start, and have
been working closely with Mars Vision to bring popular games such as
World of Warcraft, Grand Theft Auto V, and The Witcher 3 to new audiences.”
