News Wire
Monday December 14th, 2009,Tek Talk presents Larry Lewis, President Flying
Blind LLC and Darryl Sherwood, founder of Povidi NZ LTD who will demonstrate
the SoundPost Orientation System. SoundPost picks up where other GPS and
Mobility aids leave off by providing a fundamental level of orientation to a
variety of objects throughout one’s environment. Consisting of a base
station and a hand controller, SoundPost enables users to independently and
efficiently navigate to doorways, staircases escalators, etc, traveling
across complex open spaces to where the base station resides and reaching
their desired location.
Sherwood and Lewis will discuss their plans for SoundPost in a variety of
education, corporate, and residential settings, and will spend time fielding
questions about the viability of such an approach to orientation and
navigation.
