Inclusion of the visually impaired in public space
The sound beacon promotes the inclusion of all in a public space by allowing independent access to swimming with remote assistance.
A reassuring and safe device
The transmitter reassures visually impaired people because it allows them to be guided and to orient themselves. Accessound provides confidence about the dangers and obstacles that visually impaired people may encounter.
Assistance on request
The beach supervisor can choose to guide the user through the swim when needed or when there is a danger.
Quick and easy installation
For a good use of the Accessound, we recommend you to use the caps available in your order to avoid any risk of loss in case of waves.
We recommend that you always do a sound test with the user before entering the water to
ensure that the user is comfortable with the product.

An ideal solution for guiding visually impaired people in aquatic environments
Accessound is a bone conduction communication device. It allows a perfect listening even in a noisy environment. When the headset is not in the active channel of the transmitter, there is no noise for the user who can swim in peace.
Handiplage referenced for the blind bathing
Accessound is an ideal solution for a more inclusive world. This helmet allows visually impaired or blind people to swim safely with the help of a guide. This allows the lifeguard to talk to the swimmer while he or she is swimming or to give safety instructions.
