Summary
This study is testing a new wearable device designed to help people with low vision walk more safely. The device uses sound waves to detect obstacles in a person's path and alerts them with tones. Researchers will have 50 participants with normal vision wear special goggles to simulate low vision and test how well the device helps them avoid obstacles while walking.
