Getting around when you are blind is no easy thing, even if you are good with your orientation and mobility skills! Luckily there are some great GPS solutions on the market to help you get to your destination safely, not least Humanware's range of devices such as the Trekker Breeze and the Victor Trek. But as we all know, technology is ever advancing, and new devices are always coming to the market that offer advanced functionality to improve your quality of life.
With that said, enter the new GPS from Humanware, the Stellar Trek! This GPS device combines excellent maps, the ability to virtually search an area before travelling there, navigation markers and new features which utilize two cameras on the device to provide OCR and the ability to read addresses directly from buildings and identify where their doors are!
This is new era for GPS devices designed for people who are blind, and Humanware are leading the way. Join Luke and Cory, assistive technology specialists at Vision Forward, as they talk to the Director of Strategic Partnerships at Humanware, Peter Tucic, about this new device and what it can do for you!
