Seems as though technology is on its way forward and looking to be something that will affect more and more of our everyday lives. Interesting to see that the academic community are focusing on blind people and helping them with the have a better experience when they are visiting cities. Sometimes I think it would be interesting if I had a little receiver telling me where the different monumnets are as many times a just go right on by and miss them, lol. It's good that these types of projects are getting some financial backing too, as this will help us all in the large picture I think. An interesting story there.
