My wife described a 'The Blind Side' review video of it being used. The guy
had it on the opposite wrist to his cane and walked with his arm naturally
at his side, yet he still managed to pick up obstacles in front of him.
However, he didn't demonstrate how he might handle obstacles on the opposite
side as you say, Jackie. Of course, you can move your arm to detect things
on that side, but you have to know that there is an obstacle that needs
detecting before you do that.
As for kerbs and steps, the video specifically says that it is to detect
from waist up and should be used in conjunction with a cane or guide dog for
waist down.
I am also concerned that it would not be any good under a coat sleave, but
it is difficult to wear something on the wrist outside a coat sleave,
especially in winter.
Incidentally, at the end of the video, there was a promo code to get 10%
off, but I assume that was in America. Still, maybe Mike and Steve, who I
believe are planning on being UK suppliers, might be able to take advantage
of the code. The promo code was The Blind Side.
Cheers

Subject: [access-uk] SunuBand question
Could I just ask that if you wear the SunuBand on your wrist, how well are
you protected across the body if you keep your arm by your side or are
holding a dog's harness? BuzzClip, for example, can be pinned to your shirt
or something on your chest if you wish. So I am just wondering how
SunuBand, when worn on one side, protects the other?
Something else that comes to mind is how good or otherwise it might be at
dealing with steps or kerbs. Would there be any indication for these?
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown
