Haptic Vision

Inspired by vision impaired Paratriathlete: Iain Dawson, who is required to compete an individual event bound by a leash to a guide.

​

We designed a system and devices to give the athlete more control and autonomy over his performance. Driven by what locating and sensing technology could provide to vision impaired, we pursued a method focused on haptic (touch) communication tools that act as guidance aids for vision-impaired racing.
