The article discusses innovative shoes designed for visually impaired individuals, created by the Austrian company Tech-Innovation. These shoes, called InnoMake, feature built-in sensors that detect obstacles within a range of 0.5 to 4 meters. When an obstacle is detected, the shoes alert the wearer through vibrations or sound. The system includes a rechargeable battery lasting up to a week, with a 3-hour charging time. Additionally, users can customize the settings via a free app, such as adjusting the distance at which they are alerted. The shoes are water-resistant, and the sensor deactivates when seated, reactivating upon movement. There are stores in Austria where customers can try the shoes before purchasing.
If you see someone wearing these shoes, stop what you’re doing and look around. You had probably better know what it means I had no idea…
