            NEWS:
           Povidi Announces the Availability of the SoundPost Orientation 
System For North American Customers
           
           
           
           
            RELEASED: November 4, 2009
           

       
       On November 3rd Povidi NZ LTD announced the availability of the 
SoundPost Orientation System for customers who live in North America.
       
      SoundPost is the first orientation solution of its kind offering vision 
impaired customers an unparalleled means of safely identifying a desired 
location while traveling throughout their community. SoundPost consists of a 
hand controller that the user holds to locate strategically placed base 
stations which can be mounted to doorways, light posts, ambiguous bus stops, 
etc.
       
      As the user travels within the vicinity of a base station, the hand 
controller emits either a vibration, a tone, or a spoken word to orient the 
user to the base station. The end result is that SoundPost completes the 
solutions that other orientation and mobility devices do not by actually 
enabling the user to effortlessly find desired locations in real time.
       
      Check out this video which shows SoundPost in action:

      Povidi has partnered with Flying Blind, LLC to provide access to this 
solution throughout North America. Povidi's founder, Darryl Sherwood, and 
Flying Blind, LLC's founder, Larry Lewis, have a rich history of bringing 
innovative solutions to market, as evidenced by within their past 
collaborations at Pulse Data International.
       
      "We're ecstatic to be bringing such a life-changing, affordable solution 
to the North American continent," comments Sherwood. "SoundPost will enable 
tens of thousands of individuals who are vision impaired to independently 
locate those hard to find places throughout their neighborhoods at a price 
point far less than one might expect."
       
      "I am both humbled and privileged that Darryl asked for my assistance 
with SoundPost," states Lewis. "Darryl has a real passion for creating 
solutions that make a tangible difference to those of us who are blind."
       
      Povidi is currently working to introduce SoundPost into a number of 
educational and corporate settings, in addition to meeting the needs of those 
individuals that might wish to integrate this solution into their own 
neighborhoods. The SoundPost Orientation Base Station and Hand controller run 
on off-the-shelf batteries, and the batteries on the base station only require 
changing every nine months.
