The three photos below are of a design that I am planning to put into my Egronomic Design. The Navigation Bracelet, is designed to aid the user getting around, not only around the house but anywhere they want to go. The system works by voice control, audio and haptic feedback. For blind people that are self conscious of people being aware to their disability, the Navigation Bracelet looks to anybody just to be another high tech gadget thats been produced. I feel that this design is so simple but the technology used makes the design so unique and without doubt will be highly beneficial to its user. Just some of the functions of the design are; helping you get from A to B, whether that be on foot or on the bus and locate items in a shop. It assists the user by sending vibration signals clockwise or anticlockwise depending on whether you need to turn left or right.


The video below goes into more detail as to how the Navigation Bracelet works...
