Glasses with tactile response for navigation for blind and visually impaired people have been developed in St. Petersburg

Students of the St. Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation (SUAI) have developed a digital navigator for blind people — rim glasses with tactile response

The device called Dozorniy is cheaper and easier to use than well-known analogues. It is noted that Dozorniy will be able to complement the tactile cane, protecting a person from threats above knee level. Among the advantages of the project are versatility on the street and indoors, small size, weather adaptation, as well as the hands free principle. This device is cheaper compared to similar offers on the market, and is more compact, faster and easier to use.
