And best of all, I don't believe the cost is anything like $2400, either!
But probably the kind of info delivered by them isn't like the originals.
But I'd love to explore that!

Thanks so much Louie. I am actually thinking of giving the number a call on
Monday or emailing the guy and seeing what I receive back for information.
Wouldn't it be great, to have something like this when we are out on the
streets! Fang those tree branches and street signs that get us every time..

Arman Ghodousi is
an inquisitive scientist with a passion for solving real-world problems with
simple, practical, and creative scientific solutions. In 2013, Arman decided
to pursue his own passion and launched a technology company to bridge the
gap between high-tech laboratory research and the needs of undeserved
populations.
Even prior to launch of the company, he noticed that the disabled population
had limited cost-effective technological innovations geared toward mobility
independence. Blind people in particular had no means of protecting their
upper body from overhanging objects such as tree branches and low ceilings.
The launch of this company provided a suitable platform for him to provide a
cost-effective solution to help blind people avoid running into overhanging
obstacles, which resulted in our first product, Sonar Glasses.
Sonar Glasses are designed to increase mobility independence for the blind
and visually impaired. They complement the white cane and guide dog by
detecting
obstacles above waist level (such as tree limbs, signs, walls, people, low
ceilings, etc.). The technology is based on echolocation, similar to the way
bats navigate in the dark. The glasses emit sound waves and measure the time
to receive sound reflected by nearby objects.
The glasses have been presented at the NFB Maryland, Virginia and DC
conventions.

Subject: [aw-announcements] G-Sonar Glasses for blind persons
One question which came up after our speaker left the room yesterday
concerned the appearance of the g-sonar glasses. I wrote to a representative
of the company about this and here is her answer.
Bob Acosta
Robert,
They look like a solid pair of glasses. The difference is that in front of
the left ear there is a small rectangle where the battery is stored. On the
left side there is another small rectangle that where the batteries are
stored. There is also a sensor in the center of the glasses but it just
looks like part of the design. If you would like more information about the
design and price you can email Jeff Shad at jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Nichole's email address is nsullivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Thank you for your time and it was an honor to be presented on your show!
Maggie
